New Pig Introduces Pig® Absorbent Ground Tarp


Tipton, PA, April 15, 2004 New Pig Corporation has introduced the PIG® Absorbent Ground Tarp to catch oily leaks and drips from machinery or vehicles before they hit the ground.

Ideal for use as a ground tarp during routine maintenance, or as a barrier to trap equipment leaks, the PIG® Absorbent Ground Tarp's heavy-duty three-ply absorbent construction ensures that leaks and drips never reach the ground. Its durable geotextile fabric top layer allows liquid to pass through to the highly absorbent, oil-only polypropylene core that traps oils but lets rainwater evaporate. And the non-permeable polyethylene bottom layer keeps captured oil from leaching through to the ground.

Tarps are available in pre-cut and ready to use 5' or 10' squares -- 5' squares absorbs up to 3 gallons; 10' squares up to 12 gallons. In addition, the PIG® Absorbent Ground Tarp is reusable, UV-resistant, and features brass corner grommets for tying it in place.
