We switched to these absorbent mats across all five of our maintenance bays. They lay flat, absorb oil drips all day without falling apart, and the free shipping on bulk orders saved us a significant amount compared to our previous supplier. Our OSHA inspector even commented on how clean the floors looked during our last walkthrough.

Expert Insights
Ground Protection Mat 6x14 foot | Industrial Absorbent Floor Protection
Why Industrial Absorbent Mats Are Essential
Oil drips, hydraulic fluid leaks, and industrial spills on floors, walkways, and ground surfaces create slip hazards, environmental contamination, and regulatory compliance failures. Industrial absorbent mats provide the first line of defense — catching fluids at the source before they spread, stain, or reach storm drains. OSHA, EPA, and state environmental agencies require facilities to maintain clean, safe work surfaces and prevent pollutant discharge.
Engineered for Your Application
The Ground Protection Mat is the only mat in our lineup designed for outdoor applications — featuring built-in grommets and U-stakes that anchor the mat securely to turf, grass, gravel, and dirt surfaces. The charcoal gray absorbent material captures oil and petroleum fluids while the anchoring system prevents wind displacement.
Ideal for residential driveways, construction staging areas, event grounds, and any outdoor surface where vehicles or equipment may leak fluids onto grass, turf, or pavement.
Supports Regulatory Compliance
This absorbent mat supports compliance with the following regulations:
- EPA 40 CFR 112.7(c)(1) — SPCC Plans require facilities storing oil to maintain adequate containment and cleanup materials on-site.
- OSHA 29 CFR 1910.22(a)(2) — Walking-working surfaces must be kept clean, dry, and free of hazards including oil and fluid accumulation.
- EPA 40 CFR 122.26 — NPDES Stormwater Management requires prevention of oil and pollutant discharge to storm drains and waterways.
- State Environmental Regulations — Most states require facilities to prevent petroleum contamination of soil, groundwater, and surface water.
Frequently Asked Questions
What types of liquids does this mat absorb?
This is a universal absorbent mat that absorbs oil, water, coolant, solvents, grease, hydraulic fluid, and most industrial fluids. For outdoor applications where water repellency is needed, see our Ground Protection Mats which are oil-only.
What is the difference between oil-only and universal absorbent mats?
Oil-only mats (like Ground Protection Mats and Railroad Track Mats) selectively absorb petroleum-based liquids while repelling water — ideal for outdoor or wet environments. Universal mats (like Abzorb, Forklift, Adhesive-Backed, Rag Rug, and Survivor) absorb all liquids including oil and water — best for indoor multi-fluid environments.
Can I cut this mat to fit my space?
Yes. All absorbent mats can be easily cut with scissors or a utility knife to fit around equipment, columns, or irregular areas.
How do I know when to replace the mat?
Replace when the mat is fully saturated with fluid pooling on the surface, or if the mat is torn, degraded, or poses a trip hazard.
Does this product meet OSHA and EPA requirements?
Yes. These mats support compliance with OSHA 29 CFR 1910.22 (Walking-Working Surfaces), EPA 40 CFR 112.7(c)(1) SPCC Plans, and EPA 40 CFR 122.26 NPDES Stormwater regulations.
How do I dispose of used absorbent mats?
Mats are incinerable, but disposal must comply with local, state, and federal regulations. Mats saturated with hazardous materials may require hazardous waste handling per EPA 40 CFR 263.3.
Do you offer bulk or government pricing?
Yes. Volume discounts, pallet pricing, and government purchase orders are accepted. GSA-friendly. Contact sales@absorbentsonline.com or call (800) 869-9633 for quotes.

-
The adhesive-backed mats were a game changer for our warehouse walkways. No more mats bunching up under forklift traffic or creating trip hazards. They stick to the concrete, absorb everything, and our safety team is thrilled. Reordering for our second facility.
-
Ordered ground protection mats for our equipment staging area on a golf course renovation project. The grommets and stakes kept them locked down even in 30+ mph winds. Absorbed all the hydraulic drips from the excavators and didn't leave a single stain on the turf. Client was very happy.
