Hydrocarbon Absorbent Solutions

Confine oil and hydrocarbon spills with our efficient absorbent solutions, delivering superior performance for Australian businesses.

Trusted Supplier for Hydrocarbon Absorbents

The expeditious containment of any hydrocarbon spill, from a minor workplace mishap to a large-scale maritime incident, is critical for our environment. Uncontained pollutants can infiltrate the ecosystem, causing lasting harm.

Akuna Services provides a comprehensive solution, offering a range of high-quality oil and fuel-absorbent products specifically designed for terrestrial and aquatic spills. These products facilitate the swift removal of contaminants, minimising potential damage to human health, property, and the environment.

We have partnered with multiple industries, from marine, oil and gas, and mining to workshops and transport. Our extensive experience makes us well-versed in Australia’s environmental compliance policies. Therefore, our products ensure effective spill containment, adhere to strict regulatory guidelines and provide peace of mind during an emergency.

Easy-to-Use Absorbent Booms for Cleaner Waterways

Toxic chemicals and oil spills have a long-lasting effect on the environment. However, these also pose an immediate danger to surrounding property and humans. Our comprehensive range of absorbent solutions is essential in such a scenario. The booms, measuring 3m x 125mm, are large enough to contain a substantial spill. We offer these in a pack of 4, with snap hooks enabling easy and quick installation.

The robust polypropylene material used to fabricate the absorbent booms makes them UV-resistant and long-lasting. Furthermore, their ability to effectively contain oil and fuel while remaining buoyant even when fully saturated ensures optimal performance during spill containment operations. The nylon rope simplifies the retrieval process and thus makes these hydrocarbon absorbent products an apt fit around vessels, along shorelines, or in sensitive aquatic environments.

We also offer bilge booms, an effective solution to eliminate hydrocarbons and other contaminants from oil and fuel leaks in bilges, sumps, and other small areas. These bilge booms effectively absorb contaminants while repelling water, preventing further contamination and simplifying cleanup. These are also available in 300mm (L) x 125mm (Dia) packs of 15, allowing you to select the quantity that best suits your needs.

Manage Minor Spills Effectively with Absorbent Pads and Rolls

Even the smallest spills on land can pose a significant environmental threat if left unaddressed. Our absorbent pads and rolls are the perfect solution for containing and cleaning up minor leaks and spills. These are engineered for rapid absorption of oil, hydrocarbons, petrochemicals, and petroleum-based fluids.

We provide high-grade polypropylene products resistant to both lint and tears, ensuring long-lasting performance. Sustainable by design, these solutions can be wrung out and reused multiple times, minimising waste. When unforeseen indoor spills occur, or equipment and tools require maintenance, our absorbent pads and rolls offer a versatile solution.

Our SpilMax oil and fuel absorbent ranges undergo rigorous testing to ensure exceptional absorbency and overall performance before reaching you. We offer fast and convenient Australia-wide delivery so you can receive the optimal spill solution quickly. Our extensive range of absorbent products caters to diverse needs. We provide a personalised assessment to recommend the perfect fit for your situation. By choosing Akuna’s solutions, you can be confident that your company adheres to strict environmental compliance regulations.
