Tough and economical absorbent socks for everyday leaks
Absorbent socks, also known as spill containment socks, are cylindrical tubes made of absorbent material designed to control, contain, and clean up spills on factory or shop floors. Flexible and bendable, they are used to encircle and contain spills of liquids such as oil, water, chemicals, or other hazardous substances to prevent the spread and potential hazards associated with these spills. Absorbent socks are flexible and can be easily molded to fit around corners, along edges, or in tight spaces, making them highly adaptable to different spill scenarios. Socks are made from materials that can absorb significant amounts of liquid, thereby reducing the risk of slip-and-fall accidents and helping maintain a clean and safe work environment. Safety-Kleen offers two types: one with corncob filler and another option is filled with 95% recycled cellulose for those wanting a green solution.
As you shop for socks, look for these features:
- Recycled cellulose
- Wringable
- Super absorbency
