New Pig has introduced the PIG Spill Kit in High Visibility Economy Container – packed with top-quality PIG Absorbents and affordable enough to be stocked in spill-prone areas throughout the entire facility.

The bright yellow Kit features a non-threaded, lift-off lid for fast access to spill response contents and molded-in handles for easy carrying. The container’s lightweight polyethylene construction resists oil and chemical splashes and keeps kit contents clean and dry.

Easy to locate in the event of a spill, the Spill Kit in High-Visibility Container can help facilities save money when dedicated UN Rated containers are not needed for disposal of spent absorbents. Temporary disposal bags are included for faster cleanup and a tamperproof seal on the Kit helps to prevent pilfering of contents.

PIG Spill Kits in High-Visibility Economy Containers are available in various absorbency and size combinations. For more information about this Kit or to learn about custom spill kits, please contact New Pig at 1-800-HOT-HOGS or visit www.newpig.com
