Color Coded Polypropylene Tools

Segregating Chemicals Are Part Of Best Practices In Industrial Applications When Dealing With Hazardous Materials.

Plainly speaking , some chemicals just cannot exist in the same room. Some chemicals are “Dangerously Incompatible” and must never get together, and accidents, even in the best of circumstances happen. The very same applies to chemically compatible safety tools used around these chemicals., “Don’t Mix Tools, They Can Carry Residue From One Area To Another”.

Two excellent resources among many https://www.des.umd.edu/hw/rest/incomp.html and http://sv-safety.epfl.ch/page-94463-en.html

Spill kit tools are a great example, addressing spills in one area, then using these tools in another chemical area is not a good idea. Also refer to the chemical supplier or manufacturer for specific incompatibilities of their chemicals used in your operations.

Important to say again. For hazardous materials applications, color coded polypropylene tools are particularly important as many specific chemicals should never come in contact with one another as a reaction may occur. Color coded polypropylene tools are an ideal method for preventing cross contamination by color identifying specific areas of the facilities or field for color segregation of haz mats.
