This Arco spill kit provides a response to oil spillages in the workplace and contains polypropylene absorbents which can absorb up to 25 times their own weight in liquid. The kit is supplied in a polyethylene bin for easy storage and is quick and easy to deploy, removing the slip hazard on a floor effectively and with no dust or mess to clean up afterwards. Oil absorbents are also manufactured with hydrophobic properties meaning they absorb oil only and not water. This makes them ideal for outdoor spillages as they float on water, even when saturated with oil. Avoid using on water containing soap or detergent as the product will sink.
