Contain the Risk Before It Spreads
Spill Kits for Various Workplaces
According to the Work Health and Safety Act, workplaces are bound by due diligence to provide a safe work environment for their employees. High-risk workplaces such as construction sites, factories, labs, hospitals and public utilities are recommended to have spill kits so messes and spills can be cleaned up with proper equipment.
Spill kits typically contain waste disposal bags, PPE gear, absorbents, containment booms, and dispersants. We source and supply our range of spill kits from reputable Australian suppliers, providing a range of cytotoxic, chemical, general purpose, and oil and fuel kits.
The spill kit must be placed in a location that can be easily accessible by employees, and in areas where a spill is most likely to occur. The contents of the kit must be kept up to date, and Safe Industries Group in Newcastle will be able to provide replenishments if needed. If you’re not sure whether your workplace requires a spill kit, give us a call on

The Right Response
Learn How to Use Your Spill Kit Effectively
Having a spill kit on site is only valuable if your team knows when and how to use it correctly. Different spill kits are designed for different types of liquids, and using the wrong absorbent material on a chemical or fuel spill can reduce its effectiveness and potentially make the situation more dangerous.
General purpose kits handle water-based liquids and are suited to most indoor environments, while chemical kits use absorbents compatible with aggressive or hazardous substances, and oil and fuel kits are hydrophobic, meaning they repel water and target petroleum-based liquids specifically. Pairing the right kit with basic spill response training gives your team the confidence to act quickly and safely.

FAQs
Everything You Need To Know
How do I know what size spill kit my workplace needs?
Spill kit size should be determined by the volume of liquid your workplace handles and the nature of the hazards present on site. As a general rule, your spill kit should be capable of containing the largest foreseeable spill in your work area. Workplaces that store or handle large volumes of hazardous liquids may need multiple kits positioned strategically throughout the site for fast access during an incident.
Are spill kits a legal requirement in Australian workplaces?
While there is no single law that mandates spill kits in every workplace, Australian WHS legislation requires employers to manage risks associated with hazardous substances, which includes having appropriate spill response measures in place. For businesses that store or use chemicals, fuels or other hazardous liquids, having suitable spill kits on hand is considered a fundamental part of meeting your duty of care obligations under Work Health and Safety regulations.
How should spill kits be stored and maintained in the workplace?
Spill kits should be stored in clearly marked, easily accessible locations near areas where spills are most likely to occur. They should be checked regularly to ensure all components are present, undamaged and within their service life. After any use, kits must be restocked immediately so they are ready for the next incident. Assigning a responsible person to oversee spill kit maintenance helps ensure ongoing compliance and readiness across your site.
