Universal Absorbent Booms – UB123
Model: UB123Universal Absorbent Booms apply for most leakage catch up except hazardous chemical liquids.
It is always applied as quick spill fence to contain mass leaks happened both indoor or outdoor.
Note:
- Not recommended to use for toxic, harmful, corrosive or flammable liquids unless this product is the only one in hand when a chemical liquid leaks. Please refer to the article for specific reasons.
- Recyclable as disposal PP. Incineration is not recommended. Self-incineration may cause fire or produce toxic and harmful gases due to the decomposition of materials and adsorbed liquids.

What's special for UB123
- Can be bent into any shape when needed
- Galvanized connection clips allow multiple booms linking to extend overall fence length
- Strong nylon mesh enhances boom strength and won’t worn out even the boom is full saturated
Product infomation

Universal Absorbent Booms apply for most leakage catch up except hazardous chemical liquids. It can be bent into any shape without terrain limit. In workshop operator forms it into a fence circle to contain the leaked liquid for expanding prevention while can place it under pipe joints, machines or containers prone to leaks. The soft and long shape fits uneven floors well and forms a protective enclosure to contain leakage areas. It can also be placed under machines prone to leakage to catch up drips.
Clay is a traditional method for cleaning spill stains on the ground. To absorb liquids the same weighted clay is needed. When apply clay for oil containment, the operator needs to hold heavy clay and constantly sprinkle it on the oil spill. Dust will be inhaled in the nasal cavity, and the mixture of clay and oil on the soles of your feet will be carried wherever you go. The clay will allow the liquids to stay on the surface of the particles, and as gravity continues to act, the liquids will fall back to the ground.
In comparing with clay, absorbent absorbing rate is 10 times and it lock liquids on its fiber surface, which is more economic and environmental friendly solution.
General speaking industrial liquid is not corrosive, but direct contact with human body might cause eye hurt , skin irritation, or potential slipping. Therefore, some primary PPE is still needed in process of spill handling.
No ! Absorption of flammable liquids does not change its physical and chemical properties.
Treat saturated absorbents with the same storage, handling and safety precautions as you would use with the liquids that has been absorbed.
We do not recommend secondary use. Used absorbents should be disposed as waste according to the adsorbed chemical liquid as soon as possible. Improper storage will cause the liquid to react chemically with other chemicals, causing danger. UPQUARK Universal Absorbent Booms have easy-tear lines. For small leaks, You can tear off half of them for small leakage catch up as economic solution.
As emergency handling product,universal absorbents should be fast eye-catching and easily accessible. White plastic boxes with fluorescent stickers stand out no matter where they are placed -- it is easy to spot even in a pile of cardboard boxes even in power outages or driving at night.
Per 16 years’ experience, the most frequently complaint for pads is generated by packaging. Cartons are prone to damage and moisture during transportation. Damp cartons causes more moisture filtration which affects the adsorption performance. The plastic box is stronger and isolates moisture more effectively. Plastic packaging will not be ruined by water and self-extinguish with fire, which reduces fire flaming risk.
