Spill kits and sorbents are used to control and clean up hazardous spills, leaks, or drips in industrial or environmental settings. Spill kits typically include absorbent materials, such as pads, socks, or pillows, as well as personal protective equipment (PPE), disposal bags, and instructions for proper use and disposal. Sorbents, on the other hand, are specialized materials that can absorb or adsorb liquids, such as oil, chemicals, or water, from the environment. They can come in various forms, including mats, booms, rolls, or loose granules, and can be made from natural or synthetic materials. Both spill kits and sorbents are essential for maintaining a safe and compliant workplace, preventing environmental contamination, and minimizing potential liability and cleanup costs.
