Importance of Concrete Washout Bins & Systems

Purpose of concrete bins

Concrete washout bins are the solution to messy concrete pours, water and concrete waste on your job site. Also, known as washout collection trays and boxes, they are low profile, heavy duty and large capacity makes for easy discharge from the concrete truck. They are designed to limit environmental damage from concrete waste water wherever a concrete pour is occuring. The ability to collect spillage washout water helps with this.

So when a concrete line pump is being used on a construction site, it is very important to have access to a concrete collection tray. They can either be moved by crane via the lifting lugs or placed on a pallet for movement via forklift. Keeping the concrete collection within the bin ensures that any environmental damage is minimised. As well reducing the risk of any slips, trips or falls.
