  BioBailers - Biodegradable PVC Bailers


Waterra PVC BioBailers™ are the world's first PVC bailer that once discarded to landfill will biodegrade to plant food. This is truly the worlds first sustainable sampling device!

- Same quality and transparency as Clear-View bailers
- Lab tested to the same high standards as Clear-View bailers
- Biodegrades when discarded in a landfill
- Sealed in biodegradable packaging for cleanliness
- Reduces solid waste in landfill

Use for
- routine sampling from boreholes
- collecting samples from thin LNAPL (floating product) layers

Unlike PE bailers, PVC BioBailers™ are denser than water and will sink readily without the addition of a weight.

Samples are collected by gently lowering the bailer into the water column and allowing water to fill from the base upwards through a non-return ball valve. As the sample is retrieved the ball will sink to the bottom of the bailer to close and trap the water. Sample release devices are provided to ease collection of samples without spillage.

See Sampling Accessory pages for cord, reels and other field essentials.
