Absorbent Socks
Flexible cylindrical absorbent socks for perimeter containment, diking, and preventing spill spread. Available in oil-only, universal, and chemical formulations.

Product Overview
SYVEA Industrial absorbent socks are flexible, cylindrical absorbents designed for rapid deployment around machinery, along aisles, and at spill perimeters to contain and prevent the spread of liquid spills. Their tubular shape conforms to uneven surfaces, creating an effective diking barrier that stops spills from reaching drains, walkways, and clean areas.
Available in three formulations (oil-only, universal, and chemical/hazmat) and multiple diameters and lengths, our absorbent socks are an essential component of any industrial spill response plan. They can be linked together for extended barrier lengths and are supplied in convenient dispensing boxes.

White socks for hydrocarbon spills. Floats on water for marine oil containment.

BUYER QUESTIONS
Frequently Asked Questions
Absorbent socks are placed around spills or potential leak sources to create a containment barrier. Their flexible design conforms to floor surfaces, and the absorbent fill material quickly soaks up liquids that contact the sock.
Yes. Oil-only socks float on water for marine containment. All formulations can be used outdoors; however, socks should be replaced after significant rain exposure as they will absorb water (except oil-only).
This depends on your spill risk assessment. We recommend keeping at least enough socks to encircle your largest potential spill source. Contact our sales team for a spill response planning consultation.
