Universal Absorbents

Lightweight, reusable, incinerable absorbents for hydrocarbons and most chemical spills.

Description

Universal absorbents pick up any liquid, including water-based chemicals and oil, so the spilled substance does not need to be known. They are lightweight, durable, reusable and incinerable, and recycled or reclaimed raw materials are used whenever possible. Not recommended for concentrated, fuming acids.

Key features

  • Pads, the most requested item in universal spill kits
  • Socks for diking and plugging drains
  • Fabric pillows from which liquid can be wrung out and recovered
  • Perforated polypropylene rolls and a rag roll
  • Drum pads with precut 3.5 inch bung hole cut outs
  • Universal gelling polymer: 3 pounds solidify 70-90 gallons of water-based liquids
  • Universal absorbent clay in a 40-pound poly bag
  • Pillow sizes 17 x 17 inch and 24 x 18 inch

Applications

  • Roadways, walkways and plant floors where pillows and socks would interfere with operations
  • Chemical and oil spills, leaks and drips
