Description

Traditional oil absorbent mats aren’t designed for outdoor use.

Conventional oil spill mats are not engineered for outdoor leaks and drips. Most oil-only absorbent mats:

• Don’t work well when it is raining. The rainwater creates a barrier on the oil spill mat and carries the oil off and onto the surface below.
• Don’t absorb much oil or fuel, especially in wet conditions.
• Degrade and turn to powder when exposed to UV light.
• Allow leaks to “bleed through” and reach the ground underneath.

Husky Polyback Oil Spill Rugs are engineered for the outdoors.

Use Husky Polyback Oil Spill Rugs to manage small to medium-sized leaks and drips under your outdoor equipment. Husky Polyback Oil Spill Rugs are a perfect emergency response tool to deploy under a stormwater outfall where oily water may escape.

• The top layer of Spilltration^® Husky Material is engineered to hold onto oils, fuels, and other petroleum products while allowing rainwater to filter through.
• UV-Resistant for long-term, outdoor deployment.
• The bottom layer is a rugged polyethylene backing, which prevents the oil from “bleeding through” onto the ground.
• Husky Polyback Rugs come in an easy-to-manage size.
• Spilltration^® Husky fibers are made from post-consumer content.
