Why do I need a emergency mercury clean up kit?
Usually, as in the case of a broken mercurial thermometer, or blood pressure unit the amount of mercury spilled will be very small. However, because of its harmful nature spilled mercury needs to be taken care of right away. This element is poisonous and attacks the body's central nervous system. It can also harm the brain, kidneys, and is readily absorbed by the lungs. Many healthcare facilities and pharmacies use and promote the use of digital thermometers and blood pressure units as a safer alternative.
With technology today, the chance of a spill is very minimal, yet still there. It is important that you be prepared and use disposable equipment that will keep you out of harm’s way in the process of cleaning up the spill, such as ADC's mercury clean-up kit shown above. An emergency spill kit is best for a quick and efficient way to clean up and dispose of a hazardous material. They are specially designed for this type of situation, and will provide you with superior safety.
