Frequently Asked Questions
Can these absorbent sheets be used for water-based spills?
These sheets are designed specifically for hydrocarbons and oil-based liquids. They are hydrophobic, meaning they repel water, so they are not suitable where the main requirement is to absorb water-based fluids.
What is the difference between light and heavy absorbency options?
The heavy absorbency option provides a higher absorption capacity per sheet, making it suitable for areas with a higher risk of larger spills or continuous leaks. The light absorbency option offers more sheets per pack, which can be useful for frequent small spills or wider coverage.
Are the sheets suitable for use on water surfaces?
Because they are designed for hydrocarbons and repel water, these sheets can be placed on water surfaces to absorb oil-based contaminants. Always follow site safety procedures and local regulations when using absorbents on or near water.
