Greensorb Touts Aviation Potential

Company Cites Testimonial From Airport Hazmat Responder

Sorbent Greensorb, LLC is celebrating its product's increasing use in cleaning up fuel and oil spills at airports. "Greensorb" can be used to absorb fuel, oil, most acids and many other environmental contaminants, and the company says it can be reused or safely disposed of in landfills.

Company President Tom Uskup notes, "Over the past 6 months, we engaged the aviation industry to take notice of independent lab reports showing how GreenSorb works to increase safety and ease environmental concerns with aviation fluid spills, and some large airport facilities are beginning to jump on board."

Charlie Muldoon, VP of Business Development, explains, "The environmental team at Reagan National Airport in Washington DC started using GreenSorb because it would absorb and encapsulate all aviation fluids. They also appreciated that GreenSorb passes EPA testing after absorption, which translated into improved safety and lower cost-per-use for the Washington Metro Airport Authority."

Islip Regional Airport Hazmat Team Member Mike Allen commented, "Every other product we have tried does not compare to GreenSorb on absorbing caustic liquids like SKYDROL. The other products we’ve used contain the aviation liquids at best, but GreenSorb absorbs them. Even in wet conditions, when the others don't seem to work at all, GreenSorb still works the way we want."

Uskup adds, "The aviation & aerospace industry is extremely focused on safety and performance, so the fact that these large airports find value in using our product suggests that more airport facilities will take notice. Next, we expect to get the attention of major airport users like large airline operators, manufacturers, and aviation MROs."
