Absorbent Pillows

Absorbent Pillows for High-Capacity Spill Control 

Absorbent pillows are designed to handle larger spills and continuous leaks where standard pads may not provide enough capacity. Their compact shape allows them to fit into tight spaces while delivering high absorbency, making them ideal for use under leaking equipment, around drums, or inside containment areas. 

Available in gray (universal) and yellow (hazmat), absorbent pillows can be selected based on the type of liquid being handled. Universal pillows are suited for general industrial fluids, while hazmat pillows are designed for aggressive chemicals. These pillows help contain liquid at the source, reduce cleanup time, and improve overall workplace safety. 

What are absorbent pillows used for? 

Absorbent pillows are used to contain and absorb larger volumes of liquid, especially in areas where leaks are continuous or spills are more concentrated. 

When should I use an absorbent pillow instead of an absorbent pad? 

Use absorbent pillows when you need higher capacity absorption or when placing absorbents in tight spaces where liquid may pool. 

What is the difference between universal and hazmat absorbent pillows? 

Universal (gray) pillows absorb common industrial liquids like oils, coolants, and water-based fluids. Hazmat (yellow) pillows are designed for aggressive or unknown chemicals and provide broader chemical compatibility. 

Choosing the right absorbent pillow helps contain spills more effectively, reduce cleanup time, and maintain a safer, more compliant facility.
