48 × 15 cm Mini Drip Tray – 1.25 Litre

A 48 cm-long, shallow mini drip tray for elongated equipment, benchtop processes and narrow shelves where a short tray leaves part of the leak area exposed.

What Is This Drip Tray Designed For?

It provides 13 cm more length than the smallest 15 cm-wide tray while retaining the same low 2 cm profile, making it a useful middle size.

Positioning a correctly sized drip tray beneath a known leak source helps contain liquid at source, protects surrounding floors and makes routine housekeeping easier. It should be inspected and emptied before collected liquid reaches the usable capacity.

Typical Uses

• beneath compact pumps, dosing equipment and filters
• under a row of small bottles or components
• for wet brushes, tools and oily parts
• below narrow appliances and benchtop equipment

Why Choose This Size?

Choose the 48 cm model for medium-length equipment. The 35 cm tray saves space, while the 61 cm tray covers longer assemblies or several adjacent drip points.

Always measure the complete equipment or container footprint rather than relying only on its nominal width. Allow for feet, projecting fittings, hoses and the likely direction of any drip or spray.

Material and Liquid Compatibility

The tray is manufactured from recycled polypropylene, a durable, non-rusting material used for many everyday spill-containment applications. It is suitable for many oils, coolants, water-based liquids and commonly handled chemicals, but compatibility depends on the exact substance, concentration and temperature.

Check chemical compatibility before use. A drip tray is a secondary containment aid; it does not replace risk assessment, safe storage, suitable absorbents or a purpose-designed bund where legislation or site procedures require one.

Cleaning and Use

Remove collected liquid using a method appropriate to the substance. Wipe or rinse the tray after use and inspect it for damage before returning it to service. Do not mix incompatible liquids, and dispose of contaminated liquid and cleaning materials in accordance with site procedures and applicable waste requirements.
