Did you know that 85% of worker’s compensation claims result from employees slipping and falling on slick floors (Industrial Safety & Occupational Health Markets 5th edition). Moreover, the average cost for a retailer to defend a slip and fall claim is $50,000 (National Floor Safety Institute). It is well documented that a vital part of any slip and fall prevention program in a retail environment is an effective spill cleanup procedure that includes spill stations. At PCI we design and implement custom spill station programs that fit the specific needs and goals of your organization’s slip and fall prevention program.
PCI spill cleanup programs combine the the most effective and sustainable absorbent material and cleanup tools available anywhere on the market. The quick pickup characteristics of SpillEater™ absorbent means less time a spill is on the floor and less risk of slips and falls. Its enhanced absorbency means using less material which equals a lower cost of use. Most importantly, its 100% natural product means its friendly to the environment.
Most retail spill cleanup kits contain the following components: (1) use and car instructions/guide; (2) absorbent; (3) cleanup tools; (4) safety cone or marker(s); (5) plstic trash bags; and, (6) disposable plastic gloves. PCI customizes its spill cleanup programs to include the components that fit the specific needs of its clients. The two most crucial components, however, to any spill cleanup station are the absorbent material and the cleanup tools. Every PCI spill program utilizes SpillEater absorbent and the 900 Series Spill Kit combo of cleanup tools. These product lines are unique, time saving, environmentally friendly and most importantly cost effective; all crucial characteristics for any sensible spill cleanup program. Below is some additional information about these unique components.

| Broom/Squeegee The PCI spill cleanup combo is an essential part of any spill cleanup kit. The 900 multipurpose broom works great on wet and dry spills. The centerline bristle design sweeps fine dry materials especially well; and, it has a squeegee edge for liquids. It’s chemical resistant so it can be used with a variety of cleaning solutions and absorbent materials. There is simply no other spill cleanup tool like it. |
| Lobby Pan
On most lobby pans the T-Bar only rotates to 90 degrees (perpendicular to the ground). The patented 135 degree rotation of the PCI Series spill lobby dustpan allows for the T-Bar to be pulled completely out of the way when using squeegee to pull wet spills into the pan – perfect for spill cleanup. It also includes a handle clip to attach the broom/squeegee for easy storage. |
| Absorbent
SpillEater All-Purpose absorbent is an all natural, USDA Certified Biobased, renewable cotton bi-product engineered to perform fastest in picking up both water and oil based spills, suppress spill odors and fumes, while reacting with the spill to make it safer to handle. This absorbent is designed for common spill in retail stores, commercial janitorial and food service operations.When laboratory tested against leading all purpose absorbents, SpillEater All-Purpose absorbent outperformed the competition in all categories.* SpillEater is also available in formulas specifically designed to pick up oil, acid and bodily fluid based spills.

| PCI spill stations come in two styles; the hanging and the Stowaway versions. The Stowaway neatly stores all the components in a portable, durable, lightweight unit that stores in a small space on a shelf. The more traditional hanging spill cleanup station attaches to a wall, column or other available fixture. For more information please visit our Spill Cleanup & Safety Resources.
In addition to spill cleanup stations we offer a wide variety of commercial quality safety products manufactured by MCR Safety that ensure worker safety when cleaning up spills or working in potentially hazardous situations. For information visit our Spill Cleanup & Safety Resources page. |
