Crushed glass sandblasting media is an eco-friendly, cost-effective abrasive made from 100% recycled consumer glass. Ground into precise, amorphous (non-crystalline) grit sizes, it delivers aggressive yet accurate etching without the health and environmental hazards of traditional media.
Key Benefits
-
Eco-Friendly & Sustainable: Redirects glass waste from landfills and lowers demand for mined, raw abrasives.
-
Cost-Effective: Sourced from post-consumer waste, making it significantly cheaper for large-scale operations.
-
Worker Safety: Contains zero free crystalline silica and no heavy metals, eliminating silicosis risks associated with silica sand.
-
Low Surface Embedment: Lightweight density prevents particles from embedding in the target material, leaving a clean, bare surface ready for coating.
-
Versatile Grit Sizes: Available in coarse-to-fine profiles for both dry and wet slurry blasting applications.
Ideal Applications
-
Marine & Infrastructure: Safe for use near open water to strip paint and rust from ship hulls, bridges, and steel structures.
-
Automotive Restoration: Accurately strips paint and mill scale without damaging underlying sheet metal.
-
Concrete & Masonry: Cleans, etches, and removes tough coatings from concrete, brick, and stone.
-
Log Homes & Wood Refinishing: Removes old stains and weather damage without tearing delicate wood fibers.
-
Final Finishing: Prepares steel and non-ferrous metals for powder coating, plating, or painting.
