MAXSorb 240L Oil & Fuel Spill Kit - MAX-240HC

Maxsorb is an Australian manufacturer of industrial spill absorbent products, producing granular absorbents, spill socks, booms, pads, and ready-to-deploy spill kits for general purpose and hydrocarbon-specific spill response. Their products are used across manufacturing, logistics, and hazardous goods handling environments where fast, effective spill containment is required.

Maxsorb oil and fuel spill kits use polypropylene-based absorbents that repel water and absorb only hydrocarbons — petroleum, diesel, fuel, and oil. This selectivity makes them the correct choice for outdoor or wet-area spill response where water-absorbing products would rapidly become saturated and ineffective.

Where this product is used

Oil and fuel spill kits are specified wherever petroleum product spills are the primary risk:

• Fuel depots, service stations, and diesel storage areas where hydrocarbon spills require targeted containment.
• Marine and outdoor environments where rainwater or groundwater would saturate a general-purpose absorbent.
• Fleet maintenance workshops where engine oil, hydraulic fluid, and fuel are the primary spill hazards.

Selecting the right option

The key advantage of an oil-only kit is that the absorbents remain functional in wet conditions — they reject water and absorb oil, which extends their effective life in rain-exposed or floor-washed areas. Select by absorption capacity to match the largest likely single-incident hydrocarbon spill volume at your site.
