Washdowns, ingredient spills, and changeovers add time and slip hazards. Superabsorbent polymers (SAPs) capture and immobilize liquids quickly, making cleanup faster and safer while supporting housekeeping SOPs. SAPs also support spill kits and certain packaging absorbents where permitted.

Superabsorbent polymers (SAPs) rapidly immobilize free liquid by converting it into a stable gel, helping sites cut handling/disposal costs, reduce risk, and meet landfill “no free liquids” requirements. Below you’ll find quick answers to the most common questions we get about SAPs—plus where to use them and how to validate performance in the field.

Managing drilling fluid waste from HDD and hydrovac work shouldn’t drain time, money, and crews. Traditional absorbents like sawdust or lime add bulk, slow you down, and still risk free-liquid failures at the landfill. Zappa-Stewart superabsorbent polymers (SAPs) flip that script—solidifying mud in 15–30 minutes, cutting added material to a fraction of the usual dose, shrinking pit volumes, and helping loads pass Paint Filter so you can haul sooner, safer, and at lower total cost.

Tunneling has emerged as the least disruptive and most efficient methodology for rail and vehicle transportation, clean water and wastewater security and conservation as well as security for the movement of chemicals and hydrocarbon through sensitive environments.
