Sustainable Coconut Spill Absorbent

Economic Sustainability

• Supporting local livelihoods by creating jobs and an economy from a sustainable waste stream
• What was once waste is now generating a profitable income for local communities

Social Sustainability

• No Child labor
• Fair pay for fair work
• Company healthcare programs
• Community outreach programs
• Communities involved in the chain of SpillFix production can sustain themselves

Environmental Sustainability

• The raw material – coconuts – are grown without chemicals or fertilizers… only rainwater
• Production requires no mining or deforestation
• The actual material from which SpillFix is made – the coir from the husk – is literally recovered from the waste stream of the coconut industry
• With an absorbent capability 1/8 the weight of clay absorbents, SpillFix requires far less energy for packaging, shipping, storage, and disposal
• SpillFix is reusable until fully saturated and in most instances can be disposed of in non-hazardous landfill
