The legislation typically reads as follows: the bund must have sufficient capacity to contain 110% of the volume of the largest container; or 25% of the total volume stored on the bund, whichever is greater.
This means a 4 drum bund (sump capacity 230 litres) can be used to store up to 4 x 205 ltr drums (205 x 110% = 225.5 litres, 820 x 25% = 164.0 litres) or 46 x 20 litre drums (20 x 110% = 22.0 litres, 960 x 25% = 230 litres), but cannot be used to store a 1,000 ltr IBC (1000 x 110% = 1100.0 litres).

However storage requirements do vary depending on the product being stored – typically, flammable liquids, corrosive substances, oxidising agents and organic peroxides must be stored in compliant dangerous goods safety cabinets rather than on bunds.
Please note this advice is general in nature, and is based on Australian legislation. If you are unsure please check with a Dangerous Goods consultant.
Polyethylene Spill Trays are manufactured from UV-stabilised polyethylene, making them sturdy, long-lasting, and easy to clean, while having excellent chemical resistance. They are typically used to create bunded shelving, or for temporary benchtop storage of smaller volumes of liquids.
All liquid storage must comply with local, state and federal regulations. Typically, these regulations state that the bund must have sufficient capacity to contain 110% of the volume of the largest container; or 25% of the total volume stored on the bund, whichever is greater – for more details please check our FAQ.
Polyethylene Spill Trays are used in Laboratories and Workshops, on Construction Sites, and in Manufacturing Facilities.
