An Introduction

Why Sorbents?

Versatile Sorbent Solutions for Spill Management

Sorbents play a crucial role in various applications, from routine maintenance to emergency spill response. Our expertly designed sorbents cater to specific materials and clean-up requirements, ensuring efficient absorption and containment.

We offer three distinct sorbent categories, each tailored for optimal performance:

Grey Sorbents – Ideal for general maintenance and non-hazardous spills.
White Sorbents – Specially engineered for petroleum-based spills, effectively absorbing oils while repelling water.
Yellow Sorbents – Formulated to handle chemical spills, ensuring safe containment and clean-up.

With our high-performance sorbents, you can confidently manage spills while maintaining a clean and safe environment.

Why Choose Sorbents for Spill Control?

Sorbents provide an effective and equipment-friendly solution for liquid absorption. Unlike abrasive granules that can damage costly machinery, our microfiber sorbents contain millions of tiny pockets designed to absorb and retain liquids efficiently.

Choose from specialized sorbent formats based on your spill management needs:

Petroleum (Oil-Only) Sorbents – Designed to absorb oil-based spills while repelling water.
Maintenance Sorbents – Suitable for non-aggressive liquid spills in routine maintenance applications.
Chemical Sorbents – Engineered to handle both aggressive and non-aggressive chemical spills safely.

To ensure optimal spill response, our sorbents are available in high-capacity, medium-capacity, and traditional absorbency options, allowing you to select the right product for the size and nature of your potential spill.

For comprehensive spill management, we offer a full range of complementary products, including booms, mini-booms, pillows, drum covers, spill kits, and response packs, providing versatile solutions for various spill scenarios.

Key Benefits of Our Sorbents

Our sorbents are designed for maximum efficiency, ensuring superior absorption while minimizing waste.

Advanced Micro-Bundle Technology – Millions of tiny voids enhance liquid retention, effectively doubling absorption capacity.
Optimized Usage & Waste Reduction – Higher absorbency means fewer materials used, resulting in less disposal waste.
Durable & Inert Composition – Made from polypropylene and polyester fibers, our sorbents securely trap liquids while remaining chemically stable.
Versatile & Non-Abrasive – Lightweight and available in various shapes and sizes to suit different spill control applications.
Reusability for Petroleum Spills – Petroleum sorbents can be wrung out and reused, with up to 90% of the absorbed oil reclaimed.
Enhanced Strength & Reliability – High and medium-capacity sorbents feature scrim reinforcement on one or both sides for added durability and reduced lining issues.

Our sorbents deliver effective spill control while promoting cost efficiency and environmental responsibility.

Types of Sorbents for Effective Spill Management

Maintenance Sorbents

Designed for non-aggressive liquid absorption, maintenance sorbents are ideal for plant upkeep. Their lightweight and versatile nature allows for quick deployment, ensuring efficient spill control. These sorbents are dust-free and contain no abrasive granules, preventing damage to expensive equipment.

Featuring a grey color, maintenance sorbents seamlessly blend into industrial environments. As they become saturated, they darken, signaling the need for replacement while maintaining a clean appearance.

Oil & Petroleum Sorbents

Hydrophobic and water-repellent, petroleum sorbents are specifically engineered to absorb oil-based spills. Suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications, they swiftly remove petroleum-based fluids from areas where water is present.

Crafted from inert synthetic fibers, these sorbents come in various formats to optimize spill management and pollution control. They recover oil, not water, allowing up to 90% of absorbed oil to be wrung out and reclaimed. Their lightweight, dust-free, and highly absorbent properties help minimize costs and waste disposal.

Chemical Sorbents

For hazardous spill control, chemical sorbents provide a reliable solution. Available in multiple formats, including spill kits, they effectively absorb chemical liquids, including aggressive acids and alkalis.

These fast-acting sorbents are designed for quick deployment, a crucial factor in emergency situations. Keeping them readily available near high-risk areas ensures rapid response and enhanced safety.
