A Voice for the Spill Control Industry
AusSpill Association (AA) represents Australian spill control manufacturers, retailers, wholesalers & importers as a voice to government, the public and the environment protection industry.
Formed in May 2012, AusSpill’s foundation objectives are to:
- Promote AusSpill to regulators, government and industry as a product agnostic, nationwide spill control industry representative body.
- Support a nationwide product accreditation and compliance scheme.
- Implement Industry standard test methods in order to provide an impartial performance appraisal of absorbent materials and a method for identifying absorbent types (Hazchem/chemical. Oil & Fuel/hydrocarbons, General Purpose)
- Create an Australian Standard for Spill Response Kits and include that standard in other Australian Standards for the storage and handling of all classes of chemicals.
- Create and develop standards & test methods for other spill control products (such as bunding) as the industry requires.
- Collect Spill Control Industry data to assist governments and industry in the maintenance of international best practice spill control policy.
AusSpill is a product-agnostic organisation and has been structured to allow all spill control product-types and services groups the option to appoint their own Board member.
