Facts about SpillFix Floor Sweep
RENEWABLE ORGANIC RESOURCE
Coir is a certified organic product obtained from the mechanical processing of
coconut husks for fibre. Coir production is an environmentally sustainable
industry.
BIOLOGICALLY STABLE
Coir is high in lignin (>60%) which resists attack by most micro-organisms
and anaerobic processes.
CLEAN & SAFE TO USE
Coir fibre does not contain any residual pesticides and does not create dust
when used.
BIODEGRADABLE
High air fill porosity (AFP) - >20% air by volume i.e. there is >200ml of air in
one litre of saturated material. The balance between moisture and air
encourages rapid growth of aerobic micro-organisms which are important for
biodegradation of organic wastes.
Coir holds >60% of its volume in liquid (1litre of Coir holds 600mls of liquid)
or >200% of its weight.
