Why Oil Absorbent Pads and Rolls Matter

Oil absorbent pads and rolls are essential for quickly and effectively managing spills in various industries, helping to maintain safety, cleanliness, and environmental compliance.

Designed to soak up oil, fuels, and non-hazardous liquids, these products are indispensable for workplaces handling machinery, vehicles, or hazardous materials. With fast-acting absorbent properties and durable construction, oil absorbent pads and rolls ensure efficient spill management, reducing downtime and mitigating potential hazards.

Key Advantages of Oil Absorbent Pads and Rolls

Oil absorbent pads and rolls offer a range of practical benefits, making them a must-have for spill control.

These products are designed to absorb spills instantly, with specialised options like Hygro hydrophobic pads, which repel water while absorbing oil-based liquids, and Evo universal pads, capable of soaking up all non-hazardous liquids, including coolants and solvents. Their fast-acting absorbent fibres ensure quick spill containment, improving safety and reducing cleanup times.

In addition to functionality, oil absorbent pads and rolls are cost-effective and environmentally friendly, with options like Evo pads made from 85% recycled materials. Available in various formats—including individual pads, rolls, and absorbent socks—these products can handle small drips to large spills, making them ideal for automotive, manufacturing, and environmental applications.

How to Choose the Right Oil Absorbent Pads and Rolls

Selecting the right absorbent product depends on the type of liquid and spill size. Consider the following:

  • Spill Type – For oil-only spills, opt for Hygro hydrophobic pads. For mixed spills, choose Evo universal pads.
  • Format – Use pads or rolls for direct absorption of spills and absorbent socks to contain larger spills.
  • Absorbency Capacity – Ensure the pads or rolls have sufficient capacity to handle your typical spill volume.
  • Environment – Choose hydrophobic pads for outdoor settings where water is present and universal pads for indoor use.
