Oil only absorbent rolls are available in single-layer and multi-layer compositions. Some are great oil spill rolls for marine-based spills, others are the perfect oil absorbent products for general maintenance applications, and some oil rolls can be used for both applications. What they all have in common is that they are hydrophobic (repel water) and hydrophilic (absorb hydrocarbon-based fluids). Choose the composition that works best for your particular application.

oil-only rolls

fmf rolls (blue)

Fine fiber polypropylene composites have microfiber membranes that are soft like tissue paper and tend to grip many surfaces when saturated. They are highly absorbent, absorb quickly, and remove the sheen from your floors. FMF is our highest quality oil-only composite.

oil spill rolls (white)

Standard meltblown polypropylene rolls are typically unrolled along shorelines to prevent soil contamination in the event that spilled hydrocarbon-based fluids wash ashore. The open fiber construction quickly wicks up oil, diesel, gasoline, etc, and repels water. Use rolls in conjunction with pads, booms, and sweeps.

bonded rolls (white)

Bonded meltblown polypropylene sorbents have an open fiber construction that draws in viscous fluids. Bond points tie down loose fibers to alleviate linting. Unroll them along shorelines to prevent hydrocarbon soil contamination, or sections can be torn off at perforations for MRO applications.

rr track mat (black)

Use impermeable-backed railroad track mats when refueling locomotives, at ready-station sites, and when greasing rails. The top layer (black) is UV-resistant, the center layer is highly absorbent, and the bottom layer (clear film) prevents diesel fuel, oil, and other hydrocarbons from contaminating / leeching into the soil and ballast.

sms rolls (white)

Spunbond polypropylene membranes are smooth, durable, and abrasion-resistant. They withstand wear and tear, and they are great for wiping down greasy tools and equipment. The lofty meltblown polypropylene center layer is highly absorbent and wicks up hydrocarbon-based fluids quickly.

sm rolls (white)

Spunbond/Meltblown polypropylene composite is a dual-textured product. The spunbond polypropylene side is durable, abrasion-resistant, and great for wiping. The meltblown polypropylene side has an open fiber construction for absorbing viscous fluids. Use SM for both oil spill applications and for MRO applications.
