A super effective absorbent powder suitable for the safe clean-up of liquids. Sprinkle over a spillage area to quickly absorb liquid and achieve complete and hygienic cleaning. This is a suitable absorbent powder for vomit, blood, urine, and all other biohazard liquids requiring safe, quick removal and disposal.
Absorbent Powder is a fast and practical way to deal with liquid spills safely. It works by turning liquids into a gel within seconds, making them much easier to clear away. Suitable for a wide range of situations, it can be used to clean up bodily fluids such as blood, vomit, urine, saliva, and mucus, as well as other spillages including oils, drinks, and chemicals.
By solidifying liquids, the powder reduces the risk of contamination, splashing, or spreading during clean-up, and avoids the need to use equipment like mops that can become contaminated. This makes it especially useful in places where hygiene is vital, such as hospitals, GP surgeries, veterinary practices, schools, and care facilities.
Each 100 g tub can absorb up to 10 litres of liquid, offering an efficient and reliable solution for managing spills in both professional and everyday settings. The powder is quick to apply, requires no preparation, and allows for safe and hygienic disposal once the spill has been contained.
This absorbent powder is designed for anyone responsible for keeping areas clean and safe where liquid spills may occur. It is widely used in hospitals, clinics, GP surgeries, veterinary practices, care homes, schools, and workplaces where contact with bodily fluids is a risk.
It is also suitable for businesses such as food preparation facilities, factories, and public venues where spills of drinks, oils, or chemicals may happen. Emergency services and UK hospitals regularly use absorbent powder for cleaning up biohazardous fluids, including blood, vomit, urine, mucus, and saliva.
Beyond medical and professional environments, it is also useful at home for unexpected spills, whether that’s a drink on the carpet, cooking oil in the kitchen, or pet accidents.
In short, this product is for anyone needing a quick, safe, and hygienic way to absorb and dispose of spilled liquids.

Absorbent powder is used to safely clean up liquid spills, including bodily fluids such as blood, vomit, urine, saliva, and mucus. It can also be used for non-biohazard spills, such as oils, drinks, paints, and other liquids that may cause contamination or hazards.
When sprinkled over a spillage, the powder absorbs the liquid within seconds and turns it into a gel-like substance that is easy to scoop up and dispose of safely.
It can be used on hard surfaces such as floors, tables, countertops, and pavements, as well as on carpets to make cleaning easier. It is commonly used in hospitals, schools, veterinary practices, and workplaces, but is also suitable for domestic use.
Approximately 10 g of powder can absorb up to 1 litre of liquid. A 100 g tub provides enough powder to absorb up to 10 litres of liquid.
Once the liquid has been absorbed and solidified, it should be scooped into a suitable waste disposal bag and discarded in line with your local waste regulations. For biohazardous fluids, ensure disposal follows your organisation’s safety procedures.
The gelled substance from non-hazardous spills can be vacuumed, but never use a vacuum to clear bodily fluids or other hazardous liquids. In those cases, always scoop the material into a waste bag for safe disposal.
Using a mop or disposable paper risks spreading contamination, creating splashes, or leaving residue behind. Absorbent powder quickly solidifies the liquid, making it safer and easier to remove without cross-contaminating cleaning equipment.
