SHS-CH1322 – SpilMax® UniChem Absorbent Pads (400gsm)
Heavy‑Duty Universal Pads for Chemical & General Spill Response
Overview
SpilMax® UniChem Absorbent Pads are durable, reusable absorbents designed for fast, efficient spill response in demanding industrial, chemical, and agricultural environments. Made from melt‑blown polypropylene with a dimpled, scrim‑reinforced surface for added strength, these 400gsm heavy‑duty pads are hydrophilic, absorbing water, oils, fuels, coolants, diesel, acids, alkalis, oxidisers, and a wide range of industrial and agricultural chemicals.
Each pad absorbs up to 1 litre per saturation and can be wrung out and reused multiple times, offering excellent value and reduced waste. Tested to ASTM F726‑06, they provide reliable performance for chemical and hazmat response kits, workshop maintenance, and general‑purpose spill control.
Key Features & Benefits
Universal Absorbency
Hydrophilic pads absorb water, oils, fuels, coolants, diesel, acids, alkalis, oxidisers, and industrial/agricultural chemicals – one pad for multiple liquid types.
High Absorbency
Each pad absorbs approximately 1 litre per saturation. Can be wrung out and reused multiple times.
Heavy‑Duty 400gsm Weight
Thicker, more absorbent construction ideal for demanding industrial use and large spills.
Durable Construction
Melt‑blown polypropylene with dimples and scrim for tear resistance and extended service life.
Versatile Application
Use to capture small leaks, clean up spills, wipe down tools, create drip‑free set‑down areas, or line work benches.
Tested to ASTM F726‑06
Performance verified using the standard test method for sorbent performance.
