Regardless of where they occur, spills can have a significant impact on the environment, public health, and safety. Spill control products are designed to help mitigate the effects of spills, making them an essential tool for anyone who handles hazardous substances.

They are designed to quickly absorb and contain liquids, such as oil, chemicals, and water. Absorbents are made from a range of materials, including polypropylene, cellulose, and clay.

Booms help combat various situations and for use in most applications. Some applications include sheltered waters, ports marinas and the open sea.
Finally, spill control products include drain covers and blockers.
