The high surface tension within these capillaries enables the organic fibre within the product range to hold between 5 to 14 times its own weights in liquids. This gives it the ability to absorb spills which have occurred over vast areas on land and water application.

It will not leach or discharge absorbed pollutants, making it clean and easy to handle. The Ecotech Africa range of products’ high vapour suppression capacity reduces combustion vapours, eliminating the chance of explosion.

The entire Ecotech Africa product range is non-abrasive, non-toxic, non-leaching, non-carcinogenic, and in its natural state is already biodegraded. It can also be used by anybody – it requires minimal protective clothing or specialised training technicians to handle and dispose of the product.
