Water-Absorbing Mat

If you have a problem with dripping and draining water, simply place the mat in the place where the water accumulates, and the mat will absorb it evenly. The mat traps and "locks" the water in the form of a gel - that is why water does not penetrate to the surface or further areas. The mat remains flat and compact, until it is filled with water. Unlike a cloth, a mat with an aesthetic appearance will not spoil the interior by using it for a long time in open and public spaces.

Mat usage examples:

• Under a dripping bathroom cabinet or kitchen sink, a broken pipe or leaking pipe connection points, a radiator, or an air conditioner etc.
• In the public toilet under the hand dryer, thus preventing injuries from slipping or falling.
• The mat perfectly fulfills its aesthetic purpose.
• In the attic or in a room under a dripping roof.
• In supermarkets near leaking refrigerators.

NOTE: Before use, store the water absorbing mat tightly closed, in a dry and clean place. Protect from humidity and direct sunlight.

Prevention and the most suitable solution after flooding

Water leaks in houses and apartments account for the majority of all household emergencies. According to the specialists, infrastructure failures and household accidents often happen in apartment buildings. A broken water pipe, a leaking toilet, a dripping radiator and similar household issues are unpleasant and recurring situations causing damage. It’s comforting to know that it can be avoided by reacting on the spot and having the necessary tools at hand.

Our effective, water-absorbing products can protect any property from water damage. Traditional, well-known water-absorbing supplies - towels, cloths, moisture-absorbing paper - are suitable for drying only a small amount of water.

Extremely effective and easy to use

Laba-Tex water-absorbing, indoor and outdoor products can be used in various flooding situations. These products are perfect for stopping the spread of water, absorbing excess water runoff, and absorbing water in hard-to-reach places. Due to the advanced production technology - the absorbent polymers used - the products are light and compact - able to absorb a large amount of water in a short time. A compact and light Laba-Tex dam, mat, or barrier will be useful in all the following cases:

• as an emergency aid in case of unexpected flooding and water leakage,
• in the event of breakdown of water-permeable household appliances,
• as a drainage appliance for draining accumulated water in hard-to-reach areas of indoor spaces.

The water absorption process of Laba-Tex products is extremely simple and does not require much effort. You just need to place the product in the place where you want to absorb excess water, because the Laba-Tex dam-sleeve acts like a capacious sponge that does not require physical effort. Due to the efficiency and versatility of the product’s technical parameters, Laba-Tex water-absorbing absorbents can be widely used to drain large quantities of water in domestic, industrial and commercial premises. Dam-sleeves are perfect not only for absorbing water, but also for creating a barrier around the sources of water spillage, thus stopping the spread of water to further spaces and rooms.

You can also use the products for preventive purposes: in case of a high probability of flooding, leakage. Before leaving, it is recommended to place the dams inside your house, in the premises around important, non-moisture-resistant devices, and thus protect your property from the negative consequences of water spills.
