  • Main materialHAWA
  • Absorbs 15 gal per pack for large spill response

Chemical Spill Response

The 3M P-208 absorbent boom is built for industrial and laboratory teams that must contain aggressive chemical spills quickly. Each yellow boom handles acids, bases, flammable liquids and solvents in a single pass. A pack of six provides 15 gal of total absorption capacity for emergency kits or fixed stations.

Absorption Limits

One boom absorbs up to 2 gal before it reaches saturation and must be replaced. The synthetic filler of polyester and polypropylene stops liquid migration but does not neutralise the chemical hazard. Used booms remain regulated waste and require proper disposal according to local rules.

Package Quantity

The box contains exactly six 8 ft booms delivering the stated 15 gal package total. Buyers needing continuous perimeter barriers or higher single-unit capacity should calculate the shortfall before ordering.
