What Are Concrete Washout Bags?

After the concrete has been poured at a construction site, the chutes of the trucks and all of the equipment used to handle the concrete must be washed out. Concrete washout contains toxic metals and is caustic and corrosive. Because of this, having a safe and reliable method to handle your concrete washout water on a construction site is important. At ShopTough, we supply customers with sturdy and reliable concrete washout bags. We help you get the job done right!

Our Concrete Washout Bags Description And Features

Our concrete washout bags feature sewn-in plastic liners and are made from polypropylene (PP). Polypropylene is a strong and rigid material that holds up well under strenuous weights and work conditions. Our bags are lightweight and fold easily to allow for efficient storage when not in use.

Our washout bags are designed with a flat bottom and an open top. The open top feature on our washout bags allows for water evaporation which can be quite useful when handling wet materials. Our bags come with four loops located at the top of the bag, allowing forklifts to lift and move the bags conveniently and safely.

What Our Concrete Washout Bags Mean For Your Business

Concrete washout bags help your company avoid facing costly fines or potentially having your job site shut down due to failure to washout properly. Our bags are great for handling concrete waste, but can also be used for other materials, including:

• Paint
• Stucco
• Mortar
• Drywall mud
• And other hazardous material waste in construction

At ShopTough, we have designed our bags to be sturdy and tear-resistant. This helps to eliminate the chances of a spill or leak involving hazardous materials that need to be contained on the job site.

Environmentally Friendly And Safe

As important as it is to keep your workspace and job site safe, it is equally important to protect the surrounding environment from any negative impacts that could occur from this wastewater. Wastewater is highly contaminated and damaging to the environment, which is why containment is required by law. By safely and effectively containing your job site's washout water, your company will avoid legal actions and remain an ally to the environment.

Due to washout water being highly alkaline, even small amounts of it can be damaging and dangerous. The slurry in concrete wastewater can also lead to the blocking of drains which can contribute to flooding. Many consumers regard eco-friendly companies favorably for their efforts to protect the environment with responsible storage, transportation, and disposal of hazardous materials and waste.
