The company philosophy has remained unchanged over the years; to supply quality coated abrasive materials to the UK market.
 
Changes within the abrasives industry have seen a reduction in the number of manufacturers with conversion plants in the UK.  We are a UK based company with our own conversion plant.  We provide our customers with high performance, high quality products with reduced lead times, supported by a comprehensive consultancy service.
