Disinfectant Spill Kits

Spilled high-level disinfectants are dangerous. OSHA and ANSI standards (for the safe use and handling of glutaraldehyde-based products in healthcare facilities) require that spills be cleaned up immediately as they create a rapid increase of fumes. The OSHA Hazardous Materials Plan requires that a spill containment response team be created and recommends keeping a spill kit close to the point of use. The plastic bucket is water-resistant and conveniently stores all the supplies. It can also be used to dispose safely of used items in the event of a spill. Each spill kit contains enough materials to neutralize and clean spills up to 5 gallons. Each kit includes a five-minute powdered Glute Out^® or Oxid-Out^® Neutralizer, which is first sprinkled over the spill.
