Types of media blasting

Garnet is an ideal abrasive for surface preparation in industries where blasting isn't contained within a blast room. It's widely used in construction, power plants, mining, industrial facilities, and structural steel projects. It’s also effective for maintaining containers, tanks, transport vehicles, and even stone facades and monuments.

Key Benefits:

Superior cleaning efficiency – Up to twice the performance of conventional abrasives.
High coverage rate – Achieves 20-25m² per hour.
Precision results – Achieves SA3 White Metal finish effortlessly.
Consistent surface profile – 45-55 microns at 100psi for an even finish.

Garnet

Produced from soda-lime, glass beads are used for peening and the removal of almost any surface blemish. They can be used safely for texturing or producing attractive cosmetic finishes, without damaging the base material. Being totally inert, there is no risk of corrosion or any contamination whatsoever. Unless excessive blasting occurs, there is no alteration in the dimensions of the treated surfaces. Strict control of both manufacturing and grading processes ensures consistency of finish.

Glass Bead

Virgin Brown Aluminium Oxide is a sharp, fast-working abrasive, ideally suited for hand cabinets and blast rooms. Used wet or dry, where ferrous blasting abrasives are not suitable, due to the risks of corrosion and magnetisation involved. Ideal for extremely hard workpieces. Reclaimed aluminium oxide is a cheaper alternative to virgin brown but not as cost effective, due to increased break down when blasting at high pressures.
