DE PERE, WI (April 4, 2025) – FyterTech Nonwovens, a leader in the sorbent industry is launching major enhancements to multiple product lines within their Spilfyter® brand offerings. With the customer constantly in mind, their innovation team has been hard at work learning how they can solve problems and developing solutions to save time and money for their dedicated users. The team is proud to announce the launch of 20 new items in 5 categories of products.
The Spilfyter brand is launching new recycled rag rugs using post-industrial recycled fibers, produced in the De Pere, Wisconsin facility. The new rag rugs have been reengineered to be 30% stronger and absorb 40% more liquids than the previous line-up offered. Available in both pad and roll forms, these provide diverse solutions to absorb oil, water, hydraulic fluid, coolant, solvents and more.
The next innovation FyterTech is bringing to market is the Spilfyter railroad mat line extension, also reengineered to be more absorbent than our previous offering, and uses post-industrial recycled fibers, keeping materials out of landfills. These mats are designed specifically to fit inside and outside of rails, and to absorb hydrocarbons while repelling water. These new rolls use a poly backing to prevent oils from seeping into the ground to avoid costly spills and drips.
Slips, trips and falls make up over 21% of all workplace injury costs. The new Spilfyter Grab & Go® pads provide convenient high visibility absorbent pads in a portable dispenser that can be deployed quickly. The bright yellow absorbent pads with a caution pattern calls attention to a spill so foot traffic can avoid a hazard on the floor until a proper clean-up can be executed. The dispenser can be hung strategically throughout facilities to allow teams to react quickly in the event of a drip or spill.
Containing spills or creating a leak barrier is a part of the slip and trip defense, and using socks should be a part of your spill control arsenal. The new Spilfyter SpilLock™ Sock is lab tested to deliver 50% more absorbency than a standard absorbent sock. SpilLock technology is designed to not only absorb more, but it locks in liquids to prevent drips to make clean-up a breeze. Made of post-consumer materials, the SpilLock socks absorb both water based and petroleum-based fluids making it a great universal solution.
The final solution FyterTech is bringing to market is an innovation to save their customers money on logistics and warehousing. Space is money, so their line of Spilfyter reclaimed rags, both boxed and bagged solutions are now compressed to decrease the footprint by 50% while not sacrificing their ability to be stacked. As always, the Spilfyter line of rags is derived of clothing that is graded and metal-scanned for safety and to protect your assets.
“It was important to us to expand the range of Spilfyter products that rose to the top of our customer’s needs in the market. These products came to market through a mix of new technologies, investments in our manufacturing processes, and really understanding the needs of our customers,” said Christin Wam, vice president of marketing and new market development at FyterTech. “We are proud that our teams continued strategic ability to vertically integrate our manufacturing capabilities, paired with the creativity that comes from our innovation team that drives these new products to better serve our customers.”
