Absorbent Rolls Are Low-Cost Protection Against A Potentially High Cost Spill

Posted by Denise Dattilo on Jul 12th 2021

Spill control products are important to have on hand whenever you are working around liquids that have the potential to spill. When left down and used preventively, they can catch hard to notice drips and contain leaks before they spread to the surrounding area. Conversely, when kept handy, they can be grabbed when a spill happens for easy containment.

If you are looking for the best absorbent for covering large areas and soaking up leaks and overspray, we recommend our absorbent rolls. Because they are one large continuous roll, they can be rolled under machinery to quickly notice leaks. They are also ideal for manufacturing shop floors, automotive and aircraft bays, marinas and more. Plus, their easy-tear perforations reduce waste allowing you to take as much or as little as you need for your space.

Absorbent rolls are available in universal and oil only options. It is important to understand the difference between the two rolls to ensure you are selecting the proper absorbent for your spill.

Universal Absorbent Rolls (Gray):

Universal absorbent rolls will always be gray in color for easy identification. They absorb the most common industrial liquids such as: oils, water, solvents, coolants and more. Universal absorbents are extremely versatile and a great way to keep your place of work clean and safe. Our universal roll absorbs 44.4 gallons per roll and is 30 inches x 150 feet long.

Oil Only Absorbent Rolls (White):

Oil only absorbent rolls will always be white in color to differentiate them from other types of absorbents. This is important because oil only absorbents absorb and retain oils and oil-based liquids without taking in a drop of water. This makes them ideal for spill containment on land or water, indoors or outdoors.

Because they won't absorb any water, they are especially helpful for wicking up fuel spills in wet environments like a marina or boatyard. You won't waste any of your absorption power unnecessarily wicking up water and the absorbent roll pieces will float at the surface for easy retrieval, even when saturated. Our oil only roll absorbs 36 gallons per roll and is also 30 inches x 150 feet long.

Other Spill Control Products:

We also offer absorbent socks and booms that can surround spills or areas prone to leaks. Our Sure Grip™ Universal Adhesive Absorbent Mats can be cut to fit a particular area like workspaces or tool cribs, and can be placed in any location where floors may become wet to help prevent falls and injuries. Lastly our absorbent pads are great for catching drips, soaking up spills, and can be bent or balled up to fit into tight spaces and used as a wiper.
