Emergencies are Unpredictable and Inevitable. Here’s How to Prepare

Emergencies don't stick to a predetermined schedule. When you've got an urgent challenge, you need a partner who can respond — any time, anywhere. At Ironclad, we're practiced, calm, and collected when our clients need emergency response support.

Imagine a chemical storage tank with an unexpected valve leak. That liquid needs to be transferred to a temporary vessel as soon as possible to ensure safety.

On a job site, a transfer pipeline or hose might experience an unexpected rupture.

In transit, a truck could experience an accident, turn over and spill its contents.

Not one of these events could be predicted, and even the most cautious operations and planning can be interrupted by unforeseen circumstances that lead to such events. But the difference between catastrophe and a safely-managed emergency often comes down to preparedness.

Emergencies – body

In each circumstance, time is of the essence, and collection, cleanup, and containment are vital. That's one of the many reasons why the Ironclad team is available to our clients 24/7. When you call us with a challenge any time of day or night, we can not only quickly figure out what type of containment solution and assets you need, but we can immediately connect with our operations team and dispatch a driver in real time.

To help you be as nimble as possible in the event of an emergency, Ironclad keeps a base of assets on the ground in each region that we serve, ensuring that we have fast access to the assets you need in any situation — from rolloffs and tanks to our stainless steel tankers which are suited for transporting materials for disposal. In the event of a catastrophic event that requires even more attention and support, we're able to quickly activate our national supply of assets and get them on the road and to your site.

When emergencies happen, you need a plan, access, and action — and Ironclad is ready to roll. Trust us to answer your call, meet your needs, and turn problems into solutions.
