Emergency Response
Typical critical path areas that require rapid response
- Emergency response agencies – Fire, Police, Highway Agency, National Vehicle Breakdown companies
- Major incident spills on roads, rail, rivers & waterways
- Areas close to drainage systems internal or external
- Oil & Gas, Petrochemical, Pharmaceutical, Heavy Industrial Manufacturing , Waste Recycling complexes
- Open ground contamination
- Rail side track spills & contamination (unique SORBxt rail mat)
- Loading bays, parking bays, shunting yards
- Major distribution complexes
Potential Spill Materials
- Production and manufacturing material transport spills (acid, alkaline & polymer-based mixes)
- Effluents – Hydrocarbons derivatives, Hot & cold mixes of waste & manufacturing by-products, polymer-based materials
- Oils & lubricants (high grade refined hydraulic oils, oil-based cooling agents) from product or physical accident spills
- Paints – Single / Twin pack epoxy, polyester, polyurethanes & emulsions
Traditional Spill Response
- Traditional oil & chemical grades of spill granules
- Longer periods of disruption, diversion & substantial disposal
- Various grades of spill pads
- Large variants of booms
- Slow levels of absorption
- Spills can take many hours to be properly cleared & concluded
- Levels floor cleanliness vary widely
Sorb Response Absorbent
- 100% organic material, Non-toxic for human beings, animals and environment
- environmentally friendly
- Light 7.5kg bag absorbs 33ltrs of all oils, paints, acids, alkaline & polymers
- Lightweight material & packaging allows for rapid easy response
- Absorbs all oils & hydrocarbons from water surface, enables fast efficient skimming without taking up water itself
- Multi-purpose absorbent – eradicates requirement for multiple products for clearances
- Fast & efficient – enables immediate control of a spill, contained & eliminated within minutes rather than hours or days
- Post Clean – Superior surface safety & cleanliness achieved by fast efficient clearance
- Tested & Proven – 97% surface grip after an eradicated spill – independently tested & proven on Asphalt (German MPA Testing Authority) excellent results on Concrete, Ceramics, Painted Walkways
- Waste Disposal – dramatically less material (kg/lb/ltr) to dispose of, organic base matter enables more diverse final disposal options & routes
