Spill Control and Containment
The containment berm is frequently used for emergency spill response, decontamination, and secondary containment applications. In each setting, this berm functions as a barrier to prevent a spill or leak from spreading or contaminating another area. Drive through barriers, in particular, are a type of containment product that allows for contaminated vehicles to be cleaned without polluting surrounding soil or groundwater.
Spill containment tanks have also been used as a collection point for leaking tanks, drums and other vehicles. Typically designed with fairly high walls, these products can successfully contain various amounts of liquids as they leak from pumps, tanks, valves or fittings.

Erosion Control
In erosion control applications, these barriers direct water from areas high at risk for erosion such as bridges, shorelines, areas with high rainfall, low clay content or steep inclines.
A variety of natural and man-made materials are used for erosion control construction including earth, rock, concrete, coir and geotextiles. The materials are typically used in conjunction with one another to provide optimal stability.
