FAQs

How does a Weighted Containment Boom help protect stormwater drains?

A Weighted Containment Boom creates a temporary physical barrier around drain pits, spill sources or sensitive areas, helping divert or contain liquid before it reaches the stormwater system. Its flexible construction allows it to conform around uneven areas and drain surrounds.

Where should a Weighted Containment Boom be used?

Weighted Containment Booms are suitable for washdown areas, industrial facilities, shopping centres, maintenance zones and other locations where portable spill containment is required. They are particularly useful where permanent floor bunding is impractical.

How does the Weighted Containment Boom create a seal on the ground?

The boom combines a weighted internal fill with a 260gsm non-woven geotextile outer layer, allowing it to conform closely to the surface and improve contact around drains, leak sources and uneven ground.

Can multiple Weighted Containment Booms be connected together?

Yes. Multiple units can be joined using the yellow PVC connecting cuff to create a longer containment barrier. This allows the system to be adapted to larger spill areas or different site layouts.
