Oilguard
Oil-absorbing, water repelling, nonwoven fabric
BST and its partners TWE and HeiQ have developed an oil-absorbing, water repelling, nonwoven fabric for oil relief efforts called Oilguard. The product is intended for beach protection against oil spills and is applied to the shoreline. The Oilguard fabric is up to 6 yards wide and several hundred yards long and uses selective absorption technologies. This allows for the fabric to absorb crude oil yet repelling the seawater.
