Solutions for composites
Grinding, sanding and polishing composite materials
Mirka’s dust-free sanding and polishing solutions maximize efficiency, minimize costs and deliver first-class results, for even the most demanding applications.
Composite innovation in various sectors
Committed to Understanding Our Customers
Mirka collaborates closely with companies to help them address and overcome their manufacturing challenges. Therefore, innovation and the requirement to keep costs down consistently lie at the heart of our R&D and production.
Gaining valuable insight from the field has resulted in significant investment in the design of a comprehensive range of power tools that work effectively when combined with Mirka abrasives to meet the requirements of end users in a variety of sectors, including automotive production, aerospace, energy, marine, recreational vehicles, architectural and interior design.
With our R&D engineers as well as laboratory and production equipment under the same roof, Mirka can work at a fast pace to bring customer solutions to market quickly and efficiently.
Composite Surfaces
From grinding glass fibre reinforced polyester to polishing composite to a high-gloss finish, Mirka has class-leading abrasives, tools and solutions for manufacturers working with composites. Composite surfaces are often large and ergonomic power tool design plays a significant role in making sanding work efficient and effective.
Grinding and sanding composites without personal protective equipment or a dust extraction system can pose a significant risk for occupational diseases to develop. Using Mirka's proven dust-free technology makes workplaces safer and working more enjoyable - not to mention reaching the best possible finishing quality.
Solid Surface Polishing and Sanding
The introduction of solid surface materials integrated into many interior design applications such as kitchens, bathrooms, furniture and public spaces has raised the standard required for high-quality surface finishing. Mirka’s customer-focused approach has led to the development of many solutions to meet this need, including the Mirka® DEROS sander in combination with Abranet® abrasives and suitable extraction to deliver a dust-free sanding experience.
For small areas, the Mirka AOS has been developed to reach hard to access areas and tight spaces, achieving a smooth surface finish when combined with Mirka Abranet and Abralon® abrasives.
Polishing Compounds
To achieve the ultimate high-perfection finish required for multiple surface applications, Mirka’s Polarshine range of polishing compounds is optimised to deliver superior results every time.
A better choice for you and the environment
Water-Based Polishes
Mirka's polishes are all water-based and produced in Finland. There are many benefits of choosing a water-based polishing compound.
- Effective permanent removal of scratches - Water-based compounds remove scratches permanently. Solvent-based compounds can lose gloss after cleaning the surface with a degreaser and in some cases, may only temporarily hide scratches.
- Safer for the operator - No hazardous chemicals
- Sustainable - Water-based polishes are better for the environment and do not contain benzene or similar hazardous chemicals.
