Chemical Spills in the laboratory need to be handled quickly and safely with sustainable disposal. The new Instazorb Unique Super Absorbent Granule can simply be placed on the spill for rapid absorption of thousands of liquids. Instazorb is ideal for laboratory use providing a quick, non toxic removal of bodily fluids, oil based liquids, acids and liquid sample spils.

Super flexible multi use absorbent granule ‘Instazorb’ is now available in the UK via specialist chemical and online instrumentation experts, Process Measurement and Analysis (PMA) Ltd.

InstaZorb challenges pre-conceptions of what is possible with an absorbent granule, having the capacity to absorb up to 465% of its own weight in virtually any spilt liquid or semi liquid:

• Oils and associated hydrocarbons

• Acids and bases

• Food stuffs and bodily fluids

• Paint

• …and many more.

Many people have a notion of a clay or ‘kitty litter’ like product that work by ADsorbing onto the surface of the grains used to soak up oils, which work for a small range of simple spill issues encountered in a narrow band of fields. InstaZorb is composed of a surfactant treated volcanic mineral that ABsorbs spills into its structure and retains them whilst being extremely light and working on contact, meaning rapid and effective resolution of spills rather than a ‘sticking plaster’ type temporary fix.

InstaZorb is NSF certified safe for use in food handling environments as well as other locations where absorbents traditionally have not been effective or even considered for use, such as laboratories, non-sterile hospital environments, logisitical organisations and the hospitality industry.

More information will be released regarding industry specific product development over the coming months.

InstaZorb is an extremely flexible, non toxic absorbent granule that has been available in Europe and the US for over ten years and is used throughout Europe and the Middle East.
