Mercury Spill Kits

About Mercury Spill Kits

If mercury-containing equipment breaks or leaks, it can expose anyone nearby to toxic vapours. It's vital to have the correct equipment on hand to deal with the emergency quickly, and to clean up without leaving the area contaminated.

Our mercury spill kits contain the specialist items you need to contain and clean up a mercury spill before it causes harm to people or the environment. The kits are designed to be easy to transport from one part of the site to another, enabling a rapid response.

Although mercury is a highly toxic element, it can still be found in many industries and settings, ranging from laboratories to factory floors and even dental surgeries.  Specialist spill kits are indispensable for any workplace that handles, store, or uses equipment or materials containing mercury. 

Mercury was once commonly used in thermometers, thermostats, and many electrical items. If your site is involved in decommissioning old electrical equipment - or if you work in a museum or antiques business handling historical instruments - it's a good ideal to keep one of our kits on hand.
