You never know when a spill will occur. Therefore having the right spill sorbents on-hand for the job will make all the difference. Sorbents allow you to contain and clean up spills quickly and are the most common type of spill response item.

There are multiple variations of sorbents to choose from. In order to select the right type of spill sorbent, you must consider the environment that the sorbent is to be used in and how large the spill potential or drip is.

• Pads – These are considered the industrial sorbent towel and are used for all types of spills, drips and leaks; very easy to deploy and provide an economical solution for absorbing various liquids
• Rolls – Similar to pads, just provide additional coverage
• Booms -  Typically used to absorb, contain and skim oil/hydrocarbons from water; also used when large amounts of liquid are needed to be absorbed
• Socks – Used to contain and absorb a spill, drip or leak; commonly wrapped around leaky machinery
• Pillows – Used when larger quantities of liquid are needed to be absorbed; commonly placed under a repetitive drip, in a sump, or on a large volume spill
• Granular - Multi-purpose absorbents for spill clean-up, ideal for first response emergency situations, lab packing and stabilization of free liquids

No matter what type of sorbent you need, for any spill scenario you have, Seton offers all of the above in all 3 types, from Oil Only, Universal and HazMat sorbencies.
