Our Shot Blasting / Grit Blasting Processes
On-Site Blasting
Our on-site blasting services bring the convenience of high-quality surface preparation directly to your location. Using advanced shot blasting and grit blasting techniques, we efficiently remove rust, scale, and old paint from metal surfaces on-site.
This allows for immediate application of protective coatings, ensuring minimal downtime and maximum efficiency for your projects.

For projects that require controlled environments, our off-site blasting services are conducted at our state-of-the-art facility. Equipped with the latest technology, we provide comprehensive shot blasting and grit blasting services, ensuring optimal surface preparation.
Our off-site services guarantee consistent quality and adherence to stringent industry standards, making it ideal for complex or large-scale projects.
Shot Blasting
Using chilled iron abrasives, our shot blasting technique effectively removes rust, scale, and old paint from metal surfaces, preparing them for further treatment or coating.
Chilled Iron Grit Blasting
This method involves the use of chilled iron grit to clean and prepare surfaces, providing a uniform texture for subsequent coating applications.
Glass Bead Blasting
Perfect for delicate surfaces, our glass bead blasting service gently cleans and polishes without damaging the underlying material.
Non-Metallic Abrasive Blasting
For stainless steel and aluminium surfaces, we use non-metallic abrasives to ensure a pristine finish without the risk of contamination.
The standards achieved and delivered are always to a very high standard and when issues do arise they are dealt with diligently and to a high standard to our satisfaction
