    Surface Treatment Applications

    Saint-Gobain ZirPro offers a full range of ceramic media dedicated to surface treatment processes such as blast cleaning, surface preparation, surface finishing and shot peening. ZirPro ceramic media apply to a wide range of substrates, including hard steel, stainless steel, aluminum, titanium, magnesium, brass, copper and plastics.  

    ZirPro ceramic media exhibit outstanding benefits in blasting or peening processes in terms of surface uniformity and optimized energy transfer, providing a surface free of defects and contamination.  ZirPro’s Zirblast®, Microblast®, Zirglass® and Zirshot® ceramic beads are durable blasting media that ensure excellent working conditions due to their low dust emission, round shape, smooth surface and high strength.

    ZirPro provides technical support to assist customers in developing their blasting and peening processes. Our surface treatment application labs are equipped with the most advanced pressure and wheel-turbine equipment to simulate blasting and shot peening applications with ZirPro ceramic media.
