Our AbsorbentTM W products for OIL ONLY serve the Marine environment as well as the Petroleum industry by absorbing oil and other petroleum based liquids from water surface while repelling water. Oil spills on water surface are readily absorbed preventing further damage to marine life, while limiting shoreline pollution.  Booms, Socks, Pillows, Pads, Rolls and Loose Particulate make up the AbsorbentTM W product line. AbsorbentTM W Emergency Spill kits of different sizes, with various spill containment capacities, are available. AbsorbentTM W is also used as a “filtration” media for separation of oil from oily wastewater prior to discharge and reuse.  Our Scrubber 55 product serves this purpose. 

   

Our AbsorbentTM GP (general purpose) products absorb ALL LIQUIDS, including oils, fuels, and water based chemicals. These products are applied to industrial spills that may occur in factories, manufacturing/maintenance facilities, repair shops, oil refineries, highways, construction sites, airports, shipyards and transit system garages.  AbsorbentTM GP products include Socks, Pillows, Pads, Rolls and Loose Particulate that is applied to shop floor cleanup.  AbsorbentTM Emergency Spill Kits of different sizes, with various spill containment capacities, are available.
