UNIVERSAL SORBENTS

Universal absorbent products are used to cleanup non-aggressive fluids, including oil, water, coolants, and solvents. The average absorption rate is roughly 15 times their dry weight in spilled fluids. The configurations are pads/mats, rolls, socks, pillows, drum top mats, and booms. These products are typically deployed in manufacturing/production facilities for everyday general maintenance and MRO applications. Universal sorbent pads are the most commonly used products in the families of universal sorbents.
fmf pads (gray)
Fine fiber meltblown polypropylene composites have a soft microfiber membrane on both sides of the pad. They grip many surfaces when saturated, and they also remove the sheen from your floors. The microfiber membranes quickly wick up fluids and draw them into the fluffy center layer.
bonded pads (gray)
Bonded meltblown polypropylene universal sorbent pads have an open fiber construction that draws in high viscosity fluids. Bond points tie down loose fibers on these universal sorbents. Bonded pads are great for all maintenance applications to absorb oil, water, coolants, solvents, and many more non-aggressive fluids.
smf pads (green)
Spunbond/Meltblown/Fine Fiber universal mats are our highest quality nonwoven composites. The spunbond side is smooth and abrasion-resistant, which is great for wiping applications. The fine fiber (microfiber) side has a gripping characteristic when saturated and removes the sheen from most surfaces.
sm pads (gray)
Spunbond/Meltblown polypropylene universal mats are dual-textured products. 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.
sm pads (slip hazard)
Slip hazard mats replace slip hazard signs, mops, and mop buckets. They warn of hazards while absorbing the spilled fluids. These versatile universal sorbent pads are great for well-trafficked walkways or for use as general maintenance pads. The high-visibility yellow color is very noticeable.
fmf rolls (gray)
Fine fiber meltblown polypropylene composites have a soft microfiber membrane on both sides of the web. These universal sorbents grip many surfaces when saturated, and they also remove the sheen from your floors. The microfiber membranes quickly wick up fluids and draw them into the fluffy center layer.

bonded rolls (gray)
Point bonded meltblown polypropylene sorbents have an open fiber construction that draws in high viscosity fluids. Bond points tie down loose fibers. Bonded rolls are great for all maintenance applications to absorb oil, water, coolants, solvents, and many more non-aggressive fluids.
pillows (gray)
Universal absorbent pillows are high-capacity drip catchers that can be laid down under a leaky drum or machine, or they can be used to quickly absorb large amounts of spilled fluids. Absorbs oil, water, coolants, and solvents (NOT for use with aggressive chemicals, such as acids and bases).
