Product Overview

The Table-Top Dike creates low-profile containment barriers for laboratory benches, workstations, and tabletop surfaces. Made from urethane in orange for high visibility, this 4-foot dike stands just 3/4 inch tall and weighs only 2 lbs. Measuring 4 ft. L x 1 in. W x 3/4 in. H, it contains small drips and spills on countertops without interfering with work. The flexible material conforms to smooth surfaces and seals without adhesive. Connect multiple sections for longer containment runs on lab benches or equipment tables.

Expert Insights

The Table-Top Dike is purpose-built for laboratory and workstation use where floor-level dikes are impractical. At only 3/4 inch tall and 2 lbs, it sits on benchtops, counters, and equipment surfaces to contain minor drips and spills. The bright orange color provides clear visual identification of the containment zone. Use this dike around analytical instruments, chemical dispensing stations, or anywhere small liquid volumes need containment on a raised surface. For floor-level containment, choose the Interlocking Dike (1.37 in.), Connectable Dike (2.25 in.), or Connecting Dike (4.5 in.) instead.

Table-Top Spill Containment Dike, Orange | Spill Containment & Secondary Containment

Why Spill Containment Dikes Matter

EPA SPCC regulations (40 CFR Part 112) require facilities that store, transfer, or process oil to implement secondary containment measures capable of holding the entire contents of the largest container plus precipitation. Flexible spill containment dikes provide a cost-effective, rapidly deployable alternative to permanent concrete berms — without the construction cost, lead time, or floor space limitations.

Lab-Grade Benchtop Containment

The Table-Top Spill Containment Dike, Orange creates a low-profile containment perimeter on laboratory benchtops, chemical testing stations, and sample preparation areas. The 4-foot urethane dike is flexible, chemical-resistant, and can be cut to custom lengths for precise fit around instruments and work zones.

Who Buys Spill Containment Dikes

Lab managers, safety officers, and QA supervisors at pharmaceutical companies, analytical laboratories, university research facilities, and chemical manufacturing plants order table-top dikes for benchtop containment. Environmental health and safety (EHS) teams specify them for any workstation where small-volume chemical transfers occur.

Purchased by EHS coordinators, environmental compliance managers, facility maintenance supervisors, safety directors, and procurement teams. All products backed by AbsorbentsOnline’s 40+ years of industrial safety expertise.

Frequently Asked Questions

Table-Top Spill Containment Dike, Orange

Can this be used on the floor?

While technically possible, the 3/4-inch height provides minimal floor containment. This dike is designed for tabletop and bench-top use. For floor containment, use the Interlocking Dike (1.37 in.) or taller options.

Why is this dike orange instead of green?

The bright orange color provides high visibility on laboratory benches and workstations, clearly marking containment zones in busy lab environments.

How do I connect multiple sections?

Push the ends of two Table-Top Dike sections together to extend the containment barrier. Each section is 4 feet long.

Does this need adhesive on tabletops?

No. The flexible urethane conforms to smooth surfaces and creates a seal through its own weight without adhesive or fasteners.

What Our Customers Say

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

  • We use the interlocking dikes around our generator sets during refueling operations. Setup takes less than two minutes — the quick-connect ends snap together and the whole crew knows how to deploy them. We've had two minor diesel spills contained completely within the dike perimeter. The inspector was impressed.

  • These connectable dikes replaced the concrete berms we were planning to pour around our transformer pad. Saved us thousands in construction costs and we can reconfigure them when the equipment layout changes. Forklifts drive right over them without any issues. Very happy with this purchase.

  • Ordered the dike carry case along with a set of interlocking dikes for our mobile spill response kit. Keeps everything organized and protected in the truck. Only wish they made a larger case for storing multiple sets — but the quality of both the dikes and the case is excellent.
