Chemical Absorbents
Rolls and sheets
Chemical absorbent rolls and sheets for all liquids, water and aggressive chemical absorption. Used to hold spills, leakages and refrigerants, solvents, acids, sprays.
Socks
Universal type sock for ground use, dimension Ø 8 cm x 1,2m length. Package with 20 pcs. . Thanks to its extreme flexibility, which allows perfect adherence around machinery, it has a great capacity to withhold liquids.
Pillows
Absorbent pillows to be placed where leakages could occur.
Emergency Spill Kits
Spill kits are safety equipment which must be positioned in areas where spills or accidental losses of liquids are possible, where absorbents must be ready for use (for example, discharging drums or oil warehouse etc.).
According to model type, kits contain cloths, pillows, absorbing socks, disposal bags and personal protective equipment like disposable overalls, masks, gloves and glasses.
Nautical kit
A kit planned for keeping bilges clean and dry. Inside a set of pre-cut absorbent hydrophobic sheets to absorb oil, diesel or petrol from the water surface and a set of hydrophilic absorbent sheets for every kind of use.

Bi-On S
The new filtering media Bi-On S is the alternative to activated carbon (AC), normally used in solvent recycling systems.
Bi-On S is specially effective in facilities dedicated to the recuperation of solvents such as ethyl acetate and ethanol. These solvents are commonly used in graphic and printing industry (tampography, flexography, etc).
Its main advantages are:
- Activated Carbon (AC) catalyses the oxidation of Volatile Organic Compounds listed as peroxides. Those start in turn a chain reaction which causes an increase in the bed temperature, which sometimes can be above the ignition temperature of AC. In these circumstances there can be a fire in the filtering bed.
- Auto-ignition is problematic as it usually
- Occurs unexpectedly,
-May damage falilities.
-May set free toxic substances which pose a considerable threat to people and the environment.
- Natural zeolytes which compose the filtering media Bi-On S do not have self-ignition point, whereas AC has a value of 420-450 ºC approximately.
- Bi-On S eliminates the fire hazard which present the facilities dedicated to the recovery of solvents such as ethyl acetate and ethanol.
- Bi-On S does not generate the annoying and dirty dust generated by activated carbon (AC). Unlike CA, Bi-On S pellet makes handling easy during the filling of filtering towers in the solvent recuperation units.
