Expert Insights

The 18x36 inch tray provides the largest benchtop containment area in the lab tray line, making it the top choice for analytical instrument stations, chemical transfer setups, and multi-bottle reagent areas. The 2-inch lip height contains small spills without raising equipment too high off the bench surface. Yellow is the preferred color for chemical hazard areas per OSHA guidelines. For labs needing deeper containment with removable grating, consider the 17-inch or 21-inch grated models instead.

What Our Customers Say

Real reviews from the facilities, field crews, and agencies that count on us.

  • We outfitted our entire chemistry department with these lab trays. They fit perfectly on our benches and inside fume hoods. The polyethylene holds up to everything our students throw at it — acids, bases, organic solvents, you name it. The color coding helps us organize containment zones by lab section.

  • Our QC lab handles dozens of small chemical samples daily. These trays give us reliable secondary containment right at the workstation. When a beaker tipped over last month, the tray caught everything. Cleanup took seconds instead of an incident report. Great investment for any lab.

  • Perfect for our research facility. We needed trays that could handle aggressive chemicals without breaking down over time. These have been in daily use for over a year and still look brand new. The carry case is a great addition for keeping our spill containment dikes organized and portable between labs.
