Blasting material
There are a large number of blasting materials available, made from metallic, mineral and organic materials,
in various grain sizes and siftings.
The following gives a summary of the blasting materials we can supply and their corresponding applications.
Correct selection of suitable blasting materials and the corresponding grain sizes is of paramount
importance for all applications of blasting systems and surface treatment.
We are always at your disposal to perform trial blasting using the various types of blasting
systems installed in our testing facilities.
In order to make a selection from the large number of blasting materials available and to ascertain
which would be best suited to your purposes, we recommend that you make appropriate specimens
available to us.
