Anti-Slip Poly Backed Meltblown Rolls have a strong backing that won't leak and can absorb a lot of water quickly. They keep floors safer and cleaner during operations. These rolls are made of meltblown polypropylene, which wicks away liquids quickly. They can hold oils, coolants, water, and most other non-aggressive liquids, and the polyethylene backing helps stop soak-through. This makes the surface stay drier, lowers the chance of slipping, and keeps concrete, epoxy, and other floor finishes from getting stained.

What makes them different

Meltblown absorbents are made up of small fibers that quickly soak up liquids. The poly backing adds a layer of protection that keeps the carpet from going through to the floor. Together, they make a tear-off or runner pad that can be used under heavy equipment, along walkways, or at workstations where spills and drips happen often. A lot of rolls have holes in them in both directions, which lets crews cut pieces to the exact size they need and cut down on waste.


Key features

●  Anti-slip surface: Textured, low-lint face helps maintain traction in busy areas.

● Poly backing barrier: Helps prevent leaks and floor damage while keeping cleanup contained.

●  Rapid absorption: Meltblown core wicks oils and water-based fluids efficiently.

●  Durable for traffic: Resists foot traffic and light cart movement without shredding.

●  Perforated convenience: Tear off only what you need for spot coverage or larger zones.


Where they work best

● Production lines and MRO bays: Place under pumps, compressors, and hydraulic hoses to catch recurring drips.

● Warehouse aisles and staging zones: Use as runners near docks, battery charging areas, and packaging stations.

●  Laboratories and QA benches: Protect worktops during sampling or fluid handling.

●  Automotive, marine, and aviation: Manage lubricants and coolants in service bays and hangars.


Everyday benefits

● Improved safety: Drier, grippier surfaces help reduce slip-and-fall incidents.

● Cleaner operations: Poly backing helps confine spills to the absorbent, not the floor.

●  Lower waste: Perforations and roll format support right-sizing for each task.

● Better compliance support: Easier containment can aid housekeeping and safety audits.

● Versatile deployment: Use as floor runners, machine liners, or cut-to-size pads.


Selection tips

Pick the width based on how much space you want to protect. Narrow widths work well for machine bases and benches, while wider rolls are better for walkways and aisles. Find out how much the material can soak up per roll or square meter to get an idea of how much of a spill it can handle. If there is a lot of foot traffic or light cart traffic in the area, choose a heavier roll with reinforced top layers. When working in oily places, you might want to look at versions that are optimized for hydrocarbons to keep water out while still picking up oil.


Best practices for use

Before maintenance, unfold along known drip zones. To keep traction high, replace sections that are saturated right away. A roll should be kept on the service cart so that crews can quickly tear them off. If you want to use it as a runner, tape the edges where they need to be to keep them from lifting. Keep rolls in a dry, easy-to-reach place close to high-risk areas so that you can act right away.


Disposal guidance

Throw away used absorbents in a way that follows local rules and the environmental policies of your facility. What kind of waste it is depends on what kind of liquid it absorbs. Things that are fully saturated with oils, fuels, or some chemicals may need to be handled as hazardous waste.


Anti-Slip Poly Backed Meltblown Rolls are an easy and effective way for facilities to improve their safety, protect their floors, and absorb shock quickly.
