Absorbent socks don’t just soak up a spilled liquid, they can also be used in situations where you need to provide a barrier against the liquid running to a controlled area. Absorbent socks are quick to deploy and have large absorption capacities.

Absorbent pillows

Absorbent pillows can soak up large quantities of spilled liquids and are a great solution when you need to control a spill in an awkward or tight space. The pillow can easily absorb pooled liquid and is available in chemical, general purpose and oil absorbing types.
