Industrial Absorbent Pads for Industry-Specific Applications

Feb Blog 1 - How many times can we recycle the same absorbent mat

Decrease cost and eliminate entire waste streams with Closed Loop Recycling’s application-specific, industrial absorbent pads. We manufacture a wide range of mats and pads, providing businesses with various application-related spill control solutions.

The Best Oil Absorbent Mat for Your Business

Multiple industries rely on quality absorbents, such as oil spill pads and water spill pads, to mitigate employee injuries that result from spilled chemicals or liquids. Determining the best oil absorbent mat that you need for quality spill control depends on the type of application you are looking to tackle. CLR offers four different types of reusable industrial absorbent pads that are designed, manufactured, and used to meet specific industry needs:

  1. Quilted Floor Mats
  2. Hydro Mats
  3. Poly Mats
  4. Socks

Quilted Floor Mats

An efficient solution for oil and water spills, food oils, and coolants, our quilted floor mats are an excellent reusable mat option for thin fluids and “reactive” applications. Known as our “quick response mat,” this highly absorbent, reusable mat gets multiple types of liquid spills off your facility floor immediately, but we find our customers rave about its use with thinner fluids. While it will not hold quite as much fluid as our marathon mats, it will soak the fluid more quickly. Looking for a quick response mat for thin fluids? Quilted mat to the rescue!

Oil-Absorbent Hydromats

A likely choice for oil-only applications, CLR’s oil-absorbent hydromats pick up oil spills anywhere on any surface. As this mat is “hydrophobic”, it repels water and soaks oil only. Looking for a mat for skimmer applications or other oil-only needs? Hydromat to the rescue!

We have a comprehensive line of reusable mats, PPE, and absorbents. Contact us today to learn about our reusable options.

Poly Absorbent Mats

Nicknamed the “marathon mat,” our team recommends poly absorbent mats for everyday use, especially in “proactive” application. Looking for a mat to sit under a known leaky CNC machine and soak 3x as much oil as a disposable absorbent pad? Marathon mat to the rescue! Looking for a general purpose pad to soak oils and coolants in various stretches from spot spills to 15 ft. long runners? Marathon mat to the rescue! Marathon mats are the most versatile mat on the market, working for any non hazardous fluid across any industry.

This “one-problem-fits-all-solutions” mat is available in three thickness options, 10 sizes, and makes an excellent reusable absorbent for your general facility needs.

Absorbent Sock Sub

Standard socks only have one section that absorbs liquids, resulting in flipping the sock several times for maximum use. CLR’s sock sub is a reusable alternative capable of holding twice as much liquid as the standard disposable sock. Equipped with an anti-trip design, our sock sub handles oil spills and water-based liquids.

Benefits of Reusable Spill Control Solutions

Closed Loop is a single-source recycling vendor, which means you can experience all the benefits that come with reusing industrial absorbent pads when you choose us as your recycling experts. Many customers utilize our absorbent program as a turnkey SPCC (Spill Prevention, Control & Countermeasure). We handle everything from providing the reusable absorbents, setting up satellite recycling stations, training employees, transporting used material, and sustainable recycling of containers, absorbents, and the fluid within them and detailed sustainability reporting for your green initiatives like Zero Landfill or ISO 14001. One experienced vendor, multiple recycling benefits.

Choosing a reusable spill control solution rather than disposable products has multiple benefits. When properly laundered, all of our oil spill pads and water spill pads are reusable, resulting in a cost-effective way to make a positive environmental impact and improve your business’s organizational efficiency.
