This firm has recently introduced the Pig Oil-Only Weighted Blanket (photo) to capture leaks and drips outdoors, even in windy conditions. The blanket features a hydrophobic polypropylene filler that absorbs petroleum-based liquids, but no water. Heavy-duty seams form self-contained pockets within the blanket to maximize coverage area and keep the filler evenly distributed. The blanket helps companies to comply with 40 CFR 112.7 and 40 CFR 122.26. — New Pig Corp., Tipton, Pa.
