Lowest cost spill containment pallet also provides flexibility for storage and shipping
The challenge with traditional spill containment is that it’s big and bulky. It has to be in order to have the containment capacity for a 55-gallon drum. At least it does if you want to meet the EPA regulations.
But big and bulky doesn’t bode well when it comes to shipping and storage. That’s why we came up with a flexible version of our very popular Ultra-Spill Pallets. By replacing the rigid, polyethylene (LLDPE) sump used in our standard spill pallets with a rugged PVC fabric, we can drastically reduce the unassembled size of the unit, making it much easier (and less expensive) to store, transport and ship.
But that’s really where the changes end. Once the Ultra-Spill Pallet Flexible Models have been assembled, they function the same way as the standard, hard-walled versions. Simply place your 55-gallon drums on top of the grating, and if there should be a leak, it will be captured in the PVC sump.
Product Highlights
- Save an average of 60% on shipping!
- The Ultra-Spill Pallet Flexible Models provide effective spill containment for 55-gallon drums just as spill pallets have done for years past. But now there's the added ability to break down the unit into a much smaller and compact package for more economical shipping and space-saving storage.
- Economical spill containment for 55-gallon drums.
- The outer yellow sump is constructed of heavy-duty, 18 oz. PVC material - folds/rolls down easily for convenient storage.
- The grating is supported by a ribbed, polyethylene, horizontal deck/platform with interconnecting load-bearing walls.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
What are the advantages of a flexible spill pallet versus "hard walled" pallets?
It is one of the least expensive spill pallets in the UltraTech line. When disassembled, they are also the most compact package of all of UltraTech’s spill pallets which is very beneficial with regards to shipping and storage.
-
What are the disadvantages of a flexible spill pallet versus "hard walled" pallets?
Unlike UltraTech’s other spill pallets, the flexible spill pallet’s sump is dependent on a series of steel hooks that attach to the pallet’s grating in order for the sidewalls to remain upright.
-
Can flexible spill pallets be moved via forklift or pallet jack?
No, the flexible spill pallets do not have pockets to allow movement with forklifts, pallet jacks or other equipment.
-
Can I move spill pallets with drums on them?
No, we do not recommend moving loaded pallets.
-
How durable is a flexible spill pallet?
The flexible model spill pallets are very durable. The 18 oz PVC material used for the sump is heavy-duty yet flexible. In some situations, it would be less likely to be damaged than our hard walled pallets since it has more “give.”
-
How are your flexible spill pallets able to hold so much weight?
A very sturdy, ribbed polyethylene (LLDPE) material is used to construct a support platform with interconnecting, load-bearing walls (see photo gallery).
-
What kind of chemicals are the flexible spill pallets compatible with?
The flexible spill pallet’s sump is made with an 18 oz. PVC material which has excellent chemical compatibility. Specific chemicals should be confirmed using our compatibility guide.
