ABSTRACT:
The laminated mat of the present invention is suitable for protecting a surface from liquid spills. The mat includes a means for retaining the spills within the laminated mat; a means for channeling the spills throughout the laminated mat; and a means for absorbing the channeled spills. The retained means comprises a sheet of nonporous plastic material. The nonporous sheet is preferably a cushioning, bubble-pack of polyeyhelene and nylon. The channeling means is the bumpy bubble-pack surface. The absorbing means comprises an absorbent sheet, which absorbs the liquid spills that are retained on the nonporous sheet. The nonporous sheet is adhered to the absorbent sheet by a heat bonding process, whereby a polytube heat sealer seals the perimeter of the absorbent sheet to the nonporous sheet. The absorbent material may also be folded several times, and adhered to itself to form an absorbent roll. The absorbent roll is made from a flexible material which can be readily shaped to surround the base of leaky machinery to inhibit the flow of oil-based liquids therefrom.
