Secondary Containment Systems:

From New Pig Corporation

Secondary containment devices provide a back-up system to prevent the release of a spill in the event that a primary container fails.
Custom-made secondary containment products - usually consisting of an impervious concrete pad and curbing - are commonly designed by engineering firms and help facilities comply with regulations. But, with the hundreds of pre-fabricated containment options available today, there's a ready-made solution for almost every need. Pre-fabricated systems save time and money. They can also be relocated as needs or processes change.
