Whenever cytotoxics are produced, handled or administered there is the risk of spillage and a suitable spill kit should be on hand to safely clean up and decontaminate the area, protecting personnel and avoiding cross contamination.

Helapet offer a selection of cytotoxic spill kits ranging from wet spill kits to wet and dry combination spillkits, for staff handling cytotoxics within a hospital environment.

The standard Berner Spill Kit for liquid spills is available with the option of choosing a larger glove and gown if required, plus a kit version which contains latex-free only components.

The Berner Spill Kit XP can safely handle both liquid and powder spills and is supplied complete with safety apparel to protect the operator, an absorbent mat to absorb the spill, distilled water to dilute and damp down powder spills and a scoop and tongs for collecting glass and sharp fragments.

All soiled items should be placed in the waste bags provided and disposed of as cytotoxic waste.

Helapet offer free on-site training and useful resources in how to properly use the Berner Spill Kit range.
