Sorbent Mats

Versatile sorbent mats for large-area absorption of liquids in workplaces.

Sorbent pads in meltblown polypropylene are laid out wherever liquids regularly drip or leak: under machines, in drip trays, at maintenance stations. They quickly absorb oils, coolants and water-based solutions. This product group includes universal, oil and chemical variants; the catalogue item listed here is the oil sorbent pad measuring 40 × 50 cm.

This white, hydrophobic pad in meltblown polypropylene selectively absorbs oils, fuels and hydrocarbons while repelling water. At approx. 1.4 litres per pad, it holds more than the grey universal pad at approx. 1.1 litres, and it still floats when saturated. Buyers are workshops, production halls and maintenance departments.

Typical applications

  • Laying in drip trays and under leaking machines
  • Picking up oil on water surfaces
  • Maintenance stations in workshops and production halls
  • Topping up spill kits for oil incidents

What to look for when buying

The right variant depends on the liquid. The oil pad is the one to choose when only oils and fuels need absorbing, particularly on wet surfaces or outdoors, as it repels water. For coolants, water-based solutions or chemicals, use the grey universal pad from the Chemical Binders subcategory.

Both pads share the same 40 × 50 cm format and come 100 to a carton, which simplifies stock-keeping and reordering. The minimum order quantity is one carton in each case. Estimate your consumption from the absorbency and how often spills occur.

Frequently asked questions

Can the pad be used on water?

Yes. It is hydrophobic, takes up oil from the water surface and stays afloat even when saturated.

How does it differ from the oil absorbent pad under Wipes?

Both are polypropylene and measure 40 × 50 cm. The meltblown sorbent pad holds approx. 1.4 litres and is meant for spills and water; the oil absorbent pad, at 1.2 litres, is for wiping in the workshop.
