    • Absorbs and retains oils and oil-based liquids - including lubricants and fuels - without taking in a drop of water
    • Booms float at surface for easy retrieval, even when saturated
    • Tough outer mesh is UV resistant for long-term outdoor use without degradation; lets fluids easily pass through to filler material
    • Rope running along length of boom withstands up to 400-lb. loads, adding strength for deployment and retrieval
    • Spunbond polypropylene skin is UV resistant up to 12 months; meets NFPA 99 standards for static decay
    • Strong, zinc-plated carbon steel attachment clips and rings allow you to link booms together for greater length
    • Bright white color makes booms easier to see in outdoor environments and clearly shows saturation level
    • Can be incinerated after use to reduce waste or for fuels blending

        Typical techniques involve: Application of sorbents either loose, as mats or in “sausages”. As many low viscosity chemical spills rapidly spread to cover a large surface area, these techniques are most applicable if the spread of the chemical can be confined.
