We run 40 forklifts across two shifts and battery boil-overs were a constant problem. The AcidSafe powder makes cleanup incredibly simple β shake it on, watch it turn gold, wait for purple, sweep it up. Our operators can handle small spills themselves now instead of shutting down the area and calling maintenance. The color change indicator takes all the guesswork out of it.

Expert Insights
Battery Acid Neutralizer Liquid 55-Gal. Plastic Drum Container | Acid Neutralizer & Spill Response
Why Acid Neutralizers Are Essential for Battery Operations
Lead-acid batteries are used extensively in forklifts, pallet jacks, aerial lifts, floor scrubbers, UPS backup systems, and telecommunications. During charging, batteries can boil over, leak, or spill sulfuric acid β creating serious safety hazards, equipment damage, and regulatory violations. OSHA requires facilities with battery charging operations to maintain acid-neutralizing materials on-site and readily accessible. The AcidSafe product line by WYK Sorbents provides a complete acid spill response system with built-in pH indication that eliminates guesswork during cleanup.
Engineered for Your Application
This AcidSafe Battery Wash is a heavy-duty neutralizing degreaser in liquid form. Unlike the dry powder (designed for spill absorption), the liquid formula is engineered for preventive battery maintenance β cleaning acid residue, corrosion, and grime from battery terminals, cable connections, cell caps, and battery cases. The purple liquid turns orange/yellow on contact with acid residue, confirming the presence and neutralization of acid.
Regular application extends battery life by preventing acid-induced corrosion of terminals and connectors, reducing electrical resistance, and maintaining optimal charging efficiency. Essential for battery rooms, forklift charging stations, data centers, telecommunications facilities, and any operation with lead-acid battery fleets. Meets OSHA and UFC requirements for battery maintenance.
Supports Regulatory Compliance
This acid neutralizer product supports compliance with the following regulations:
- OSHA 29 CFR 1926.441 β Battery rooms and battery charging: requires acid-neutralizing materials be available for emergency use.
- OSHA 29 CFR 1910.178 β Powered industrial trucks (forklifts): requires acid spill response materials at battery charging stations.
- OSHA 29 CFR 1910.120 β HAZWOPER: requires proper training, equipment, and materials for hazardous substance emergency response.
- State & Local Fire Codes β Many jurisdictions require acid-neutralizing materials in battery storage and charging areas.

What Our Customers Say
Real reviews from the facilities, field crews, and agencies that count on us.
-
-
Our OSHA inspector specifically asked about our acid spill response capability in the battery room. Having these spill kits mounted at each charging station satisfied the requirement immediately. The kits have everything β neutralizer, goggles, gloves, face shield, disposal bags. No scrambling to find separate pieces during an emergency. AbsorbentsOnline pricing beat everyone else we checked.
-
We switched from baking soda to AcidSafe for our battery maintenance program and the difference is night and day. The liquid spray makes cleaning battery terminals so much easier β you can actually see the acid residue react and get neutralized. Our battery life has improved since we started using it regularly. The free shipping on bulk orders is a great bonus.
