Product Overview

Spill Containment Wall Berm - 3'H System

The Spill Containment Wall Berm - 3'H System is acomplete modular containment wall berm system with interlocking polyethylene wall blocks, corner pieces, and a 30 mil PE liner — designed for permanent and semi-permanent secondary containment around drums, tanks, generators, transformers, and heavy industrial equipment. Available in 1-foot, 2-foot, and 3-foot wall heights, this UltraTech system provides rigid, stackable containment that won't collapse under wind, weather, or fluid load. Meets EPA SPCC (40 CFR 112) and OSHA secondary containment requirements.

The heavy-duty polyethylene wall blocks are UV-resistant and chemical-resistant — withstanding oils, fuels, solvents, coolants, and mild acids and bases. The modular interlocking design allows crews to configure containment areas of virtually any size by adding straight and corner sections. No tools, adhesives, or heavy equipment required for assembly.

Expert Insights

When selecting a containment berm, calculate the required sump capacity as 110% of the largest container stored within, or 10% of the total volume of all containers — whichever is greater. This ensures compliance with EPA 40 CFR 264.175. Consider UV exposure for outdoor installations; polyethylene berms offer superior UV resistance compared to PVC options. For cold-weather operations, verify the liner material remains flexible at your lowest expected temperatures. XR-5 and LLDPE liners maintain flexibility well below freezing, while standard PVC can become brittle. Always install berms on a level, debris-free surface to prevent punctures and ensure proper containment capacity.

The UltraTech Containment Wall Berm is a modular, hard-wall secondary containment system engineered for permanent and semi-permanent outdoor installations.This complete system includes 20 interlocking polyethylene straight wall blocks, 4 corner blocks, and a 30 mil textured PE liner — delivering a fully enclosed containment perimeter ready for immediate deployment.

Available in 1-foot, 2-foot, and 3-foot wall heights, the heavy-duty polyethylene wall blocks interlock without tools, adhesives, or heavy equipment. The UV-resistant and chemical-resistant construction withstands oils, fuels, solvents, coolants, and weathering for years of outdoor service. Designed to meet EPA SPCC (40 CFR 112) secondary containment requirements for tanks, drums, generators, transformers, and bulk storage areas.

Ideal for: Bulk fuel storage facilities, transformer pads, generator containment, industrial equipment staging, military installations, and any application requiring rigid-wall secondary containment without the cost of poured concrete.

Frequently Asked Questions

Spill Containment Wall Berm - 3'H System

What size containment berm do I need?

Calculate based on EPA 40 CFR 264.175: the sump must hold 110% of the largest container or 10% of total container volume, whichever is greater. For outdoor use, add freeboard for rainwater accumulation.

How do I clean the containment berm?

Remove accumulated liquids using a pump or wet vacuum. Clean the liner with appropriate solvents or degreasers based on the spilled material. Inspect for damage during cleaning and patch any punctures immediately.

Can I drive equipment over the berm?

Only berms with designated drive-over ramps or track guards should have vehicle traffic. Standard berms can be damaged by forklifts and vehicles. Consider a drive-in berm or ground-level berm with approach plates for vehicle access areas.

What Our Customers Say

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

  • ★★★★★
    “We replaced a failing concrete containment pad with the 2-foot wall berm system and it took our crew half a day to set up. The modular blocks interlock solidly and the PE liner hasn’t leaked once in over a year of outdoor use. Our EPA inspector approved it without any issues. Huge cost savings over re-pouring concrete.”
    — Facility Manager, Industrial Chemical Storage
  • ★★★★★
    “Needed rigid-wall containment for a transformer pad at a remote substation. The 3-foot system was perfect — no concrete contractor needed, and we could transport everything on a single flatbed. The yellow walls make it highly visible for safety. AbsorbentsOnline had the best pricing and shipped it free.”
    — Environmental Compliance Officer, Electric Utility
  • ★★★★★
    “We bought the 1-foot system for our drum storage yard. The tool-free assembly was a huge plus — two guys had it set up in under 2 hours. We’ve since ordered extra straight sections to extend the perimeter for additional drums. Great modular design and the quality is excellent.”
