Absorbent polypropylene mostly takes the form of polypropylene pads and is specially designed to fix each and every kind of spill. It absorbs water-based liquids, possibly dangerous products such as petroleum, petrol, gas as well as coolants.
1. Oil Absorbent Polypropylene
Oil absorbents in South Africa are used on various lands and water to pick up hydrocarbons. Since it resists water, the oil absorbent polypropylene will target fuel, oil, gasoline, lubricating oils and other forms of hydrocarbons.
2. Chemical Absorbent Polypropylene
Chemical absorbent polypropylene is used on perilous or foreign chemical leaks. Using chemical absorbent polypropylene pads, rolls, or help to consume any type of liquid. Unlike oil absorbents, chemical ones can even absorb water and other aggressive liquids such as acids.

Marine booms are used to contain and absorb oil spills on waterways, rivers, streams, lakes, and ponds to absorb oil contamination from the surface. They will float indefinitely and will not sink even when saturated with oil. Robust metal clips and rings are fitted to enable booms to be fitted together, providing any length of containment.
