Hazchem Absorbent Mat

Use these chemical absorbent mats to absorb most acids, bases, coolants, paints, solvents, oils and hazardous chemicals. This hazchem mat is ideal to use wherever chemicals are stored, handled and spilt.

Hazchem (also known as chemical) absorbents are made from meltblown polypropylene which are colour-coded pink for easy identification.  These absorbents are able to absorb up to 20 times their own weight in liquids and have a fast-wicking action to clean up spills quickly. Hazchem absorbents are inert and dust-free and will not degrade or chemically react with absorbed liquids.
