Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between drum bunds and IBC bunds?
Drum bunds are designed to store smaller containers such as 205L drums, while IBC bunds are built to accommodate larger intermediate bulk containers (typically 1000L). IBC bunds have higher load capacities and greater sump volumes to safely contain larger spills.
How do I calculate the required bund capacity?
Bund capacity is typically determined by the largest container stored, along with a percentage of the total stored volume. A common guideline is to contain at least 110% of the largest container or 25% of the total volume stored — whichever is greater. Always check local regulations and site requirements.
Are bunds required by environmental regulations in Australia?
Australian environmental and workplace safety regulations generally require secondary containment for hazardous liquids to prevent spills entering the environment. Bunding is a key control measure used to meet these obligations, particularly in industrial and high-risk environments.
What materials are bunds made from (poly vs steel)?
Bunds are commonly made from polyethylene (poly) or steel. Poly bunds are lightweight, corrosion-resistant, and ideal for chemical storage, while steel bunds offer higher load capacity and durability for heavy-duty or harsh industrial applications. The right choice depends on your chemical compatibility and site conditions.
What is a collapsible bund and when should it be used?
Collapsible bunds are portable containment systems that can be quickly deployed and packed down when not in use. They are ideal for temporary worksites, maintenance activities, transport operations, or emergency spill response where permanent bunding is not practical.
Do bunds need to be drained or maintained?
Bunds should be regularly inspected and maintained to ensure they remain effective. This includes removing rainwater or contaminants, checking for damage, and ensuring the sump capacity is available when needed. Proper maintenance is essential for compliance and reliable spill containment.
