Lightweight absorbent granules

Different approaches in dealing with spills can be called for depending on the location and type of spill, advises PHS Spillcontrol. For example, in busy or public areas such as supermarkets and shopping centres, where there is a high footfall of traffic, it is essential to clean up a spill as quickly as possible to minimise any risk of a slip or fall.

For such situations, there are products on the market that can help with a speedy clean up and are highly absorbent. Super absorbent granules are one example. They absorb all liquids (except hydrofluoric acid) or semi liquids of any viscosity from any surface quickly, leaving the surface clean, dry and safe to walk on.

Super absorbent granules are lightweight, easy-to-use and easy to dispose of, which can help to reduce clean-up and waste disposal costs and give managers peace of mind that they are meeting their health and safety obligations.
