GreenStrength · oil absorbents

Bench mat

The pad, sized for a workstation. An 18″ × 30″ sheet of the same oil-only polypropylene sorbent, sized to cover the bench during teardown and service work so the oil ends up in the mat instead of the floor drain.

Inside the mat

Layer by layer

Same construction as the pad, sized to a bench: two meltblown sorbent layers, ultrasonically welded. Tap a layer to see what it does.

  • Ultrasonic weld pattern — bonds the two layers with no adhesive
    • A bench-sized sheet takes more handling — the welds keep it in one piece saturated
    • No adhesive — nothing to dissolve in oil, fuel or solvents
    • Same weld pattern as the pad, run on the same line
  • Meltblown sorbent layers ×2 — oleophilic capillaries drink oil, repel water
    • Absorbs up to 22× its weight in oil — validated by a certified third-party lab
    • Oil-only: picks up hydrocarbons, leaves the water behind
    • 100% virgin polypropylene — consistent capillary structure
    • 18″ × 30″ as standard; custom sizes cut to your bench

Laminated ultrasonically, no adhesive — and we cut custom sizes from the same media. How ultrasonic welding works · Ask for a size

What it is

Same media, bigger footprint. The bench mat covers the working area rather than chasing a single drip — you set the job down on it and everything that comes out of the assembly lands on sorbent.

It is the cheapest form of housekeeping in a service bay: oil that never reaches the floor never reaches the drain, the walkway or the inspection report.

Where it goes to work

  • Workbenches and assembly stations
  • Teardown and rebuild work
  • Automotive and fleet service bays
  • Pump, gearbox and hydraulic servicing
  • Lab and test benches
  • Under portable equipment

How to use it

  1. Lay the mat over the bench or bay floor before the work starts.
  2. Work over it — drips, wipes and drained fluid stay in the media.
  3. Replace when the mat is saturated or the job is finished.
  4. Dispose of the used sorbent in line with your local regulations for hydrocarbon-contaminated waste.
