The Ultra-IBC Spill Pallet Plus is a cost-effective and movable solution for containing spills from large containers such as IBCs and tanks. It is made entirely of polyethylene (LLDPE) which makes it highly resistant to chemicals. With forklift pockets, it is easy to move around.
The innovative “Cross of Life” design protects the pallet’s structural integrity during heavy loads over time. As more weight is applied to the top of the pallet, the Cross of Life design draws the all-polyethylene sides towards the center instead of allowing them to sag outwards. Learn more.
Benefit from the industry’s most robust warranty, offering five years of protection against any defects in material or workmanship. Learn more.

No, we do not recommend moving loaded spill pallets.
The Ultra-IBC Spill Pallet Plus has a lower profile of 711mm is forklift-friendly and less expensive.
If you need a larger sump capacity or a greater weight capacity, then the Ultra-IBC Spill Pallet may be a better option for you.
The standard dimensions for a typical plastic IBC in Australia are as follows:
These dimensions result in an IBC capacity of 1000 litres.
Yes, there are forklift pockets on two sides of the pallet.
It is not recommended.
The pallet has a 3,855 kg capacity. This is for uniformly distributed loads . An IBC that is supported by pedestal post or feet focuses all its weight on those feet. If the dimensions of those feet are not large enough to properly displace the weight on the spill pallet’s grating, it could be an issue. As a precaution, steel plates (at least 304mm x 304mm) can be used under the feet in order to more evenly distribute the weight over a greater area.
Our pallets are made of 100% polyethylene (LLDPE) which provides superior chemical compatibility and corrosion resistance.
Because of the potential weight of two fully loaded IBCs we would recommend that you use the Ultra-IBC Spill Pallet instead. It is capable of safely handling up to 7,257 kg (UDL ).
Yes, the Ultra-IBC Spill Pallet Plus is available either with a drain (Product CHU1158 ) or without a drain (Product CHU1157).
The standard drain is a threaded hole in the sidewall with a 19mm polyethylene plug with NPT threads installed.
The Ultra-IBC Spill Pallet Plus is made of 100% polyethylene (LLDPE) so it won’t rust or corrode. It also has UV inhibitors so it will last for many years in the sunlight without degrading. HOWEVER, the biggest consideration for using the Ultra-IBC Spill Pallet Plus outside is rain. If the sump is filled (even partially) with rainwater, it has lost or reduced its capacity to capture a spill from the IBC that’s on top of it. There are a few ways to address this issue:
12.1 Place the IBC and the pallet somewhere where there is a roof/shade or some other form of overhead protection to keep the rain and elements out.
12.2 Use the optional pull over cover (Product CHU1159) and place it over the IBC and pallet.
12.3 Instead of purchasing the Ultra-IBC Spill Pallet Plus, buy the Ultra-IBC Hard Top which has a built-in rigid polyethylene (LLDPE) cover.
12.4 Add an Ultra-Self Bailer to the spill pallet sump. This unit will allow clean water to pass through while filtering out any gas, oil or other hydrocarbons.
Yes, the Ultra-Bucket Shelf is an excellent complement to the pallet. It slides securely into built-in grooves in the side of the pallet and captures any incidental leaks or spills that may occur when liquids are being dispensed from your IBCs. If you order the bucket shelf at the same time as your pallet we will also install a bulkhead fitting so that any liquids that are captured are directed into the pallet’s sump.
The columns provide internal support and there is a correct way for them to be installed. If you do not have instructions or have any questions, please contact us.
