BioBailer™

BioBailers^™ are standard disposable bailers used for groundwater bore sampling but with the added benefit of being biodegradable* when discarded into a landfill.

As people who care for the environment, it makes little sense to use a single-use plastic bailer to sample and monitor the quality of our environmental water, then throw the item away to remain in a land fill for 100’s of years or more. Let’s not be solving one problem only to be creating another.

BioBailer™ Specifications

BioBailers™ are made of PVC or HDPE with a small amount of an engineered additive to make them biodegradable*.
PVC has higher specific density of 1.3 allowing these bailers to sink faster than HDPE bailers. Therefore weighting of PVC bailers is not necessary in most applications

BioBailers^™ have all the same characteristics you expect:

• Easy to use
• Quality of materials
• Cleanliness
• VOC and SVOC testing to EPA 8260B and EPA 8270D
• Assurance of clear and accurate samples
• Clarity to see your sample

Plus BioBailers^™ have these additional features:

• Will biodegrade away in a few years.
• Will no longer add to the filling of our landfills
• Will no longer contribute to our overwhelming plastic trash problem
• Allows us to sample groundwater without making a further problem elsewhere

Other Features:

• Each BioBailer™ comes with a biodegradable* free emptying device
• Each BioBailer™ comes sealed in a biodegradable* plastic bag
• BioBailers™ are supplied in cardboard boxes made from partially recycled material
