SORB®XT APPLICATION

The German Federal Ministry for Environment, Nature Conservation and Nuclear Safety differentiates between three different categories/types.

Type I

For application on water aswell as turbulent water

SORB®XT is hydrophobic; therefore, the material remains on the surface of the water where it can be siphoned off. Due to the hydrophobic nature the problem is not moved to the bottom of the water but stays on the surface.

Type II

For application on smaller bodies of water or ordinary ground

Contaminated soil can be purified. To do so organic fertilizers must be added and the soil has to be tilled regularly. This process heavily depends on the temperatures outside and takes several weeks or months.

Type III R

For application on special grounds or industrial grounds

The very fast absorption is a guarantor for safety at the workspace or in traffic. After using SORB®XT, the surface achieves a tested grip of 97%.

Type SF

For use on firm ground and on water.

The special formats are 100% filled with the natural fiber SORB®XT. SORB®XT pipes and pillows can be used as a barrier and as a receiving medium.

SORB®XT target groups

As an organic binding agent, SORB®XT is the best possible addition to safety concepts in industry, trade and logistics. Wherever necessary measures are needed to optimally guarantee health safety in the workplace, SORB®XT is the sensible solution for protection in all situations where dangerous substances escape.
