Portable Railcar Spill Containment Berm

Compared to other railcar secondary containment products, the Ultra track berm is lightweight and used as temporary containment berms on railroad tracks. Railcar secondary containment berms combined with a dual sump can catch spills on either side of the rail.

The closed-cell polyethylene foam that makes up the walls gives the Ultra track berm the secure wall structure needed to contain spills and leaks. The Ultra track berm is made from 40oz. (42 mil.) PVC material designed to withstand harsh chemicals and difficult outdoor railroad conditions. The railcar spill containment berm features two stainless steel camlock fittings meant for drainage that is quick and leak-free.

Temporary containment berms like the Ultra track berm are meant for short term containment projects. Railcar spill containment requirements that are long-term would do well with other railcar secondary containment products like a track pan.

Why would you want to use a railcar spill containment berm for your next railcar maintenance project? If you want the freedom to move your railcar secondary containment wherever you work, without sacrificing the durability and reliability that you need to meet railcar spill containment requirements, then the Ultra track berm is for you. Temporary containment berms like this one offer both portability and durability. With the dual sump design, the tracks will be protected from leaks and spills on both sides of the rail.

Railroad berm capacity is important. The containment capacity of the Ultra track berm is 144 gallons, but with the camlock fittings, the drain hoses, which can be purchased additionally, can be connected so that leaks and spills may be directed to a collection area.

Railcar Spill Containment Berm Benefits for Compliance

• Lightweight, Portable
• Dual Containment for Even More Capacity
• Durable Material Construction

The railcar spill containment berm is both easy to move and extremely reliable wherever it is placed. When performing maintenance on railcars and tankers, you need to be sure that leaks and spills won't cause compliance issues for you. Railcar spill containment requirements cannot be overlooked. Railcar secondary containment that can be moved by one person is greatly necessary. The Ultra track berm is a railroad berm that is both lightweight, easy to move, and made from 40oz. (42 mil.) PVC, capable of standing up to the harshest chemicals and conditions, depending on your site.

Temporary containment berms are just that—temporary. If your railcar spill containment requirements lend themselves to more long-term railcar secondary containment, then the Ultra track pan, which comes in a standard and Ultra track pan composite model, might be the solution you need more. When compared to the Ultra track pans, the railroad berm is much lighter and can be moved more easily, but track pans can be connected, end-on-end, for virtually unlimited secondary containment capacity.
