Containment booms and pom-poms for marine applications
MBT containment booms and oil only pom-poms offer a one-two punch for tackling marine oil spills. Containment booms stop oil spills from spreading by keeping the oil contained to a small area. Our oil-only pom-poms selectively absorb oil (hydrocarbon based fluids) while repelling water.
Containment Booms
Containment booms are a cost-effective solution containment of oil spills on water. Containment booms are also used as barriers in holding ponds to retain waste and debris. The contractor boom is ideal for use for rivers and streams where fast currents may exist that require a strong and manageable containment boom.
