Should you use clay products to absorb spills?

Clay may be used for kitties but it should never be used for Spill Clean Up.  It is not an "absorbent" but an "ADsorbent" since the liquid only sticks to the outside of the clay.  An "ABsorbent" is like a sponge which sucks up the spill.

Here are 6 reasons why:

1. Clay leaves a mess.
   The spilled liquid merely coats the clay. The spill seeps out quickly, leaving an oily, wet film.  It is not save for landfills or sewers because the liquid does not stay on the clay particles.  Xsorb is non-leaching and is safe to dispose in your regular trash or landfill.
    
2. Clay tracks all over the place.
   Because it doesn’t absorb well, it’s left standing to “soak up” the spill.
   The clay and the spill usually wind up where they don’t belong — all over your shoes, the floor, and in your machinery.  Xsorb absorbs immediately and can be swept up and disposed. This opens the affected area to regular use sooner than clay.
    
3. It’s cheap to buy but expensive to use.
   Increased disposal and labor costs add up fast.  It takes a long time to clean up.  Xsorb cleans up quickly and easily leaving the floor completely dry.
    
4. Clay is heavy.
   The average bag of clay weighs 50 lb. — making it hard to apply and remove.  It's also more risk for your employees to handle the heavy bags.  Our product is lightweight - 1 bag of Xsorb will absorb as much as 10 bags of clay 'absorbent'.
    
5. Clay clogs up your drains.
   Loose clay finds its way into everything — even the plumbing.
    
6. Clay contains harmful silica dust.
   Why expose yourself to a known health hazard?
    

Have you read the label on a bag of clay?
Here’s an example of the warnings found:

“CONTAINS FREE SILICA”

“DO NOT BREATHE DUST”

“MAY CAUSE DELAYED LUNG INJURY (SILICOSIS)”

“FOLLOW OSHA SAFETY AND HEALTH STANDARDS FOR CRYSTALLINE SILICA (a known CARCINOGEN)”
