Spill Remedy Fibers

The Biosorbe Spill Remedy Fibers, for efficient and environmentally friendly absorption of hydrocarbons in air, soil and water, can replace today’s plastic and oil-based alternatives as well as clean where there currently are no alternatives.

Sustainable fibers from responsibly managed forests

Strong
hydrophobicity

Attraction of non-polar substances

Absorbs oil 10 - 20 times its own weight

Oilonly -
excellent retention

Green profile, low CO₂ emissions

No microplastics when deloyed in nature

Why Biosorbe?

Made from cellulose fiber, Biosorbe leaves no microplastics, aligning with the global commitment to environmental protection in marine and sensitive ecosystems.

Absorbs hydrocarbons on contact, offering a highly responsive solution for oil spill containment in diverse environments.

Lightweight and easy to handle, the material simplifies spill response.

Effectively absorbs both bio-based and traditional oils, suitable for diverse spill scenarios.

High retention capacity keeps oil within the fibers, making saturated material easy to collect and dispose.

Absorbs fully to the core without creating oil blockages, unlike conventional PP-filled booms.

With its high absorbent capacity and ability to penetrate and saturate a core-filled boom, this innovation significantly reduces both the cost per liter of absorbed oil and the total amount of waste generated.
