Isol8 Oil Spill Absorbent Granules: A Lighter, Easier Way to Clean Up Spills

13th November, 2026

Oil spills happen. Cleaning them up doesn’t have to be a hassle.

Whether it’s a leaking hydraulic hose, a diesel spill during refuelling or a puddle of oil on the workshop floor, having the right spill absorbent to hand can make cleaning up a whole lot easier. And when you’re dealing with spills regularly, the last thing you want is to be lugging around heavy bags of absorbent granules.

That’s where Isol8 Oil Spill Absorbent Granules come in.

Why choose Isol8?

  • Up to 3x more absorbent than traditional clay granules.
  • Lightweight 1.3kg bags – easy to carry, transport and store.
  • Works on multiple liquids – including oil, diesel, petrol and hydraulic fluid.
  • Locks liquids inside – helping prevent absorbed contaminants from leaking back out.
  • Made in the UK – using recycled natural materials.

Not just for oil spills!

Despite the name, Isol8 Oil Spill Absorbent Granules can handle much more than just oil.

  • Hydraulic oil and lubricants
  • Diesel and petrol
  • Grease and anti-seize
  • Paint
  • Mild acids and alkalis

Rather than keeping several different types of absorbent granules on hand, Isol8 can help you deal with a range of common spills using one product.

How do you use Isol8 absorbent granules?

1. Contain the spill

If it’s safe to do so, stop the leak and prevent the liquid from reaching drains or surrounding areas.

2. Sprinkle the granules

Spread Isol8 over the spill, covering the affected area.

3. Let it absorb

Give the granules time to soak up the liquid.

4. Sweep it up

Once absorbed, collect the used granules and dispose of them appropriately for the substance they’ve absorbed.

That’s it. No complicated equipment required!

A quick reminder: Oil and fuel spills should never be washed into drains. Used absorbents contaminated with hazardous substances must be handled and disposed of correctly.

Keep your spill supplies topped up

You never know when the next spill is coming.
