0%
Absorption
Absorbs up to 90% of its own volume in oil.
Sorbify Oil Absorbent
The material that binds oil.
A hydrophobic absorbent engineered to repel water and lock in oil, fuel and hydraulic fluids, from the very first minutes of a spill.
Oil does not mix with water, and neither does Sorbify Oil Absorbent. The granules repel water and bind oil-based liquids, so a spill stops spreading, the surface becomes safe again and the material can be swept up and disposed of responsibly.
The material
Hydrophobic
Repels water and targets oil, also in wet and outdoor conditions.
Non-toxic, non-flammable
Not classified as hazardous under the EU CLP regulation.
Biodegradable
Not bioaccumulative. Binds and neutralizes odors.
Hydraulic oil
Engine oil
Diesel & fuel
Lubricants
Machine oils
Marine fuel
Hydrocarbons
Applications
One material.
Three ways to apply it.
The same oil-binding material, in the format the situation calls for: loose granules for surfaces, pillows for leaks and drips, booms to stop a spill from spreading.
01Granules
Spread it on any surface
Loose granules for floors, asphalt and workshop surfaces. Cover the spill, let it bind, sweep it up.

02Oil Pillow
Place it under a leak

500 × 400 mm2 pcs / pack
03Oil Boom
Stop it from spreading
A flexible absorbent boom to surround a spill, protect drains and guide the flow.
80 × 2000 mm
Where it works
Wherever oil
meets a surface.
Maintenance & workshops
Engine oil, hydraulic leaks and everyday drips.
Construction & infrastructure
Machinery leaks on site, before they reach the ground.
Industry & warehouses
Lubricants and machine oils on production floors.
Emergency response
Fast containment of fuel spills after incidents.
Transport & depots
Diesel and fuel at terminals, depots and loading bays.
How it works
Contain.
Absorb.
Collect.
No special tools or training. The material does the work in minutes.
- 1
Contain
Spread the absorbent around the edges of the spill first to stop it from spreading, then cover the whole area. Use a boom to protect drains.
- 2
Absorb
Let the granules bind the oil. Add more where liquid is still visible. The material repels water, so it works on wet surfaces too.
- 3
Collect
Sweep up the saturated material and dispose of it according to local and national regulations.
