Product identity
ULTRATECH 5232 Oil-Eating Microbes are a powdered bioremediation product supplied in six 4 oz bags. They contain bentonite clay and microbes from the Ultra-Archaea series designed to digest grease and oil. Industrial maintenance teams and environmental crews use them for spill response and routine cleaning.
Compatibility checks
Verify that the contaminated material is oil or grease, as the microbes target those fluids. Confirm the storage temperature can keep the product viable for the three month activated lifespan. Ensure local regulations allow microbial treatment and that the gray powder form suits the application method planned.
Build integration
The bags are applied directly to the spill area where the clay carrier holds moisture and protects the microbes during activation. No extra hardware or mixing equipment is required beyond basic personal protective gear. Using this product frees up absorbent pads and chemical degreasers that would otherwise be needed for the same cleanup task.

Questions about this item
What comes in the Ultratech 5232 package and do I need anything else to use it?
The package contains six 4 oz bags of Ultra-Archaea powder made from bentonite clay and microbes. No extra items are required; simply apply the powder directly to the oil or grease spill.
Should I choose a different container size or quantity for my spill response kit?
This product is only offered as a six-pack of 4 oz bags. If you need a different amount, you would have to purchase multiple packs or look for another SKU.
How long do the microbes stay active once the bag is opened and applied in the workshop?
The activated lifespan is three months. After opening, the microbes remain effective for that period when stored properly and applied to hydrocarbons.
