Coco-Peat-Absorbent that is ideal for environmentally friendly spill clean- up of Oils, Diesels, Fuel and Petroleum based Hazmat Spillages. Coco Husk Peat Absorbent is a revolutionary, state of the art oil and hydrocarbon absorbent made from the highest grade of Coco Husk. AfriSupply Coco Peat absorbs oil at a superior rate of approximately 1 pound of product per gallon. A common finding is that saw dust is made use of in the event of day to day spillages or in the event of larger spillages, contrary to popular belief saw dust in not an absorbent nor is it a hydro-carbon, it is a main by-product of sawmills and relatively speaking cheap thus commonly and incorrectly used within industry
