Manage Cleanroom Spills Effectively

Cleanroom absorbents are designed specifically for cleanroom or laboratory uses. As these controlled environments demand to be as free from airborne contaminants as possible, a quick clean-up of spills is recommended. You may contain spilled liquids or solvents from spreading by using cleanroom absorbent socks or cleanroom absorbent pillows.

Which is Better? Sock vs Pillow.

Cleanroom socks and pillows share a few similarities. They are often durable, resistant to tearing, absorb most common industrial liquids, and hold up liquid even when saturated. Choosing between a cleanroom sock or pillow, then, depends on how you’d like to use your cleanroom absorbent.

Cleanroom absorbent socks are long, almost like a sausage, and highly formable. You can move and shape a cleanroom sock to hug corners or form barriers to absorb leaks and spills. By creating a dike, they easily create the first line of defence against migrating spills.

If you’ve already got the spill contained, great job! To soak up all that liquid, use a cleanroom pillow. Usually, a cleanroom pillow is used for when the spill is too large to be absorbed with regular wipes or mats. Because of their large surface area, cleanroom absorbent pillows have a high capacity to soak up heavy spills, quickly.
