FOR A SAFER CLEANER ENVIRONMENT
DRIZIT ON BOARD SHIP
DRIZIT REPELS WATER AND IS UNAFFECTED BY WASHDOWN OR CONTACT WITH SEA WATER.
DRIZIT is a polypropylene based, general purpose range of products formulated to contain and absorb fuel, lubricating and process oils as well as hydrocarbons, oil based paints and most solvents.
On board ship DRIZIT functions as a primary component of the ship’s oil spill contingency plan. Identifiable sources of leakage or spillage can be permanently protected, large spills or leaks prevented from running overboard and small to medium spillages contained and absorbed entirely from the vessel’s own resources preventing environmental damage as well as ensuring safer working conditions for crew members.
In all forms DRIZIT absorbents are suitable for long term on board storage.
