    Pillows
    Image of Product. Front orientation. Sorbents. Sorbents , Pillows.
    Sorbents for chemicals, oil, and water are also known as universal sorbents.
    Pillows are thicker than pads, so they soak up more liquid. They’re good for drips and in corners.
    For Oil—Sorbents for oil cling to oil but let water pass through.
    16" Wide—16” wide perforated rolls have perforations every 12”.

    Outdoor Sorbents

    Keep oil out of soil and fuel out of drains. These sorbents cling to oil but let water pass through, so you can leave them outside for weeks to catch oil spills and leaks. More rugged than typical sorbents, these sorbents won’t break down when exposed to sunlight, and gravel and debris won’t pierce them.

    Clean Room Sorbents

    Absorb spills, catch drips, and control leaks in clean room environments. These sorbents are cleaned and bagged and don’t release as much lint or dust as other sorbents. Clean room rating indicates the acceptable level of contaminants; the lower the rating, the cleaner the environment. Not for use with aggressive liquids, such as hydrochloric acid.
