Spillows was founded by Kalina Hayes, a creative problem-solver with a passion for craftsmanship. While studying theater at Virginia Commonwealth University in Richmond, Kalina honed her skills in costume construction—skills that would later prove invaluable in a very different industry. When a family friend struggled to find grease socks in a custom size for his business, Kalina saw an opportunity to help. She dove into research, tested materials, and perfected her construction methods, determined to deliver a product that was effective, reliable, and affordable.
What began as a one-off solution quickly grew into a full-time business. After graduating from VCU, Kalina dedicated herself to building Spillows, refining her manufacturing process to ensure every grease sock met the highest standards of quality.
Today, Spillows is proud to offer hand-made, quality-inspected grease socks to distributors and commercial hood cleaners across the country.
As a local, female- and minority-owned business, Spillows is committed to supporting the community and delivering exceptional products. Every grease sock is made by hand in North Carolina, using only the best available materials. Our commitment to craftsmanship means you can trust Spillows for consistent performance and durability—batch after batch.
