Oil spill kit — POK‑01

The first fifteen minutes of a spill, zipped into one bag. Pads, socks and personal protection staged where the risk is, so the response starts before the paperwork does.

What it is

A kit is a decision made in advance. When something lets go, nobody wants to be walking to the stores for pads — the kit hangs on the wall by the risk, and the response is a matter of opening a bag.

Contents are the same GreenStrength media in the two formats a first response needs: three socks to stop it travelling, ten pads to take it up — plus the gloves, goggles and waste bag, so the whole job, including the disposal, is in the one bag. Total capacity is 5.5 US gallons of oil and fuel, and the packed kit weighs 2.3 kg.

How to use it

  1. Stage the kit where the risk is, not where the storeroom is — response time is the whole point.
  2. On a spill: socks first to stop it spreading, then pads to take up what is pooled.
  3. Bag the used sorbent in the supplied waste bag.
  4. Restock the kit immediately — refills come from the same pad and sock part numbers.
