Inert, DOT-Compliant Absorbent Material

UPQUARK Vermiculite Granular Absorbent is a high-performance granular absorbent made from expanded vermiculite, designed to meet the demanding needs of industrial safety and compliance. Its inert, sterile, and pH-neutral composition makes it not only an excellent floor sweep but also a DOT-compliant cushioning and absorbent medium for packaging hazardous liquid containers during transport.

Fast Absorption for Hazardous Liquids

It quickly absorbs and solidifies a wide range of aggressive fluids, including paints, solvents, inks, and water-based chemicals—ensuring faster cleanup and safer environments.

Highly Absorbent & Lightweight
Absorbs up to 3 times its own weight, delivering impressive performance with lower volume and reduced disposal costs.
Instant Spill Control
Perfect for Rough Floors & Cracks
The fine granular texture allows it to flow into cracks, gaps, and crevices, making it a smart choice for textured concrete or uneven surfaces.
pH Neutral & Non-Toxic
Sterile, chemically inert, and pH-balanced—safe to handle and non-reactive with most industrial chemicals.
Transport-Grade Protection
Compliance
Recommended Applications
  • Factory floors (concrete, epoxy, rough tile)

  • Maintenance and utility rooms

  • Transport and shipping preparation areas

  • Paint shops, solvent stations, or ink processing zones

  • Spill response kits for general and hazardous liquid containment

Benefits
  • Reduces workplace slip hazards

  • Minimizes waste volume and transport cost

  • Provides dual-use absorbent for both on-site cleanup and regulatory shipping compliance

FAQs

All faqs
What makes vermiculite suitable for hazardous liquid shipping?

It is inert, non-reactive, highly absorbent, and meets DOT standards for absorbent cushioning during overpacking.

Can this be used as a floor sweep?

Yes. It’s excellent for industrial floors—especially rough or uneven surfaces—and leaves minimal residue after use.

What types of liquids can it absorb?

It handles most industrial liquids including paints, solvents, hydrocarbons, inks, dyes, and aggressive water-based chemicals.

Is it safe for workers?

Yes. It’s non-toxic, sterile, pH-neutral, and safe to handle with standard PPE.

How does it compare to clay absorbents?

It’s lighter, absorbs more per unit weight, and performs better in compliance-sensitive environments, especially for transport packaging.
