Our Industrial Absorbent Mat Categories
Oil Absorbent Mats (Abzorb Oil Mats)
Our best-selling Abzorb Oil Mats are purpose-built to absorb petroleum, diesel, hydraulic fluid, and motor oil while repelling water. Available in 17 sizes from compact 3'x3' pads to full 6'x150' rolls, these oil-only mats are ideal for placement under machinery, vehicles, compressors, and anywhere petroleum leaks are a risk. The hydrophobic polypropylene construction means they won't waterlog from condensation or ambient moisture — only oil gets absorbed.
Forklift Floor Mats
Purpose-sized for forklift traffic lanes, charging stations, and parking areas. Available in 6-foot widths from 8' to 150' long, these heavy-duty mats absorb oil, hydraulic fluid, and battery acid drips that forklifts inevitably leave behind.

Ground, Turf & Lawn Protection Mats
Protect outdoor surfaces during construction, events, and heavy equipment operations. Available in 13 sizes from 3'x3' to 6'x20', these mats prevent turf damage, soil compaction, and ground contamination from oil and fuel leaks.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between oil-only and universal absorbent mats?
Oil-only mats (like our Abzorb Oil Mats) use hydrophobic polypropylene that absorbs petroleum-based liquids and repels water. Universal mats absorb all liquids including water, coolants, solvents, and oils. Choose oil-only when you need to absorb hydrocarbons without waterlogging; choose universal when multiple liquid types are present.
Can absorbent mats be used outdoors?
Yes. Our Ground Protection Mats and Survivor Camouflage Mats are specifically designed for outdoor use. Oil Absorbent Mats and Railroad Track Mats also perform well outdoors. For outdoor applications, oil-only (hydrophobic) mats are preferred since they won't absorb rainwater.
How often should absorbent mats be replaced?
Replace mats when they are visibly saturated, no longer absorbing effectively, or showing signs of deterioration. In high-leak areas, this may be weekly. In light-drip areas, mats can last months. Regular visual inspection is the best practice.
Are these mats safe to walk on?
Yes. All our industrial absorbent mats provide a non-slip surface when properly placed. The Adhesive-Backed Non-Slip Floor Mats are specifically engineered with a peel-and-stick backing to stay flat and secure in high-traffic pedestrian areas.
How do I dispose of used absorbent mats?
Mats saturated with petroleum are typically classified as non-hazardous oily waste and can be disposed of through standard industrial waste channels. Mats contaminated with hazardous chemicals must be disposed of as hazardous waste. Always follow your local and federal EPA disposal guidelines.
Do you offer bulk or pallet pricing?
Yes! We offer full pallet quantities for Railroad Track Mats, Rag Rug Mats, and other high-volume products. Call (800) 869-9633 for custom bulk pricing on any mat product.
What mat size should I use under a forklift?
For forklift parking and charging stations, we recommend 6'x8' or 6'x10' mats. For forklift traffic lanes, use 6'x50' or 6'x150' rolls to cover the full length of the aisle. All forklift mats are 6 feet wide to accommodate standard forklift widths.
Can I cut these mats to custom sizes?
Yes. All our absorbent mats and rolls can be cut with standard utility scissors or a box cutter to fit any area. The Adhesive-Backed Non-Slip Floor Mats are especially easy to trim and install in irregular spaces.
Do absorbent mats help with SPCC compliance?
Absorbent mats are commonly used as part of SPCC (Spill Prevention, Control, and Countermeasure) plans required by the EPA for facilities that store oil. Placing mats under equipment, at drip points, and in high-risk areas demonstrates proactive spill prevention.
Does AbsorbentsOnline.com offer free shipping?
Yes! Most mat products ship free to the lower 48 U.S. states. Full pallet orders may qualify for additional discounts. Call (800) 869-9633 for freight quotes on large orders.
