LEADING GLOBAL ABRASIVES BRAND USES NEW BREAKTHROUGHS TO INCREASE PRODUCTIVITY IN THE BODYSHOP.

INDASA was founded in 1979 in Aveiro, Portugal, and has built up over 40 years of experience in developing coated abrasives. They use FEPA-compliant mineral grains, strict quality control, ISO certification (e.g. ISO 9001) and continuous R&D investment. This means you are more likely to get consistency from batch to batch.

Their solutions cover all stages of vehicle repair, from panel preparation to final finishing, and are backed by ongoing investments in manufacturing, technical advancements like dust extraction systems, and education programs for distributors and end-users.

Because they manage scratch patterns, grit consistency, finishing abrasives and polish, the final finish (primer, top coats, clear coats) will look better and last better. Reduced risk of visible defects. Good dust extraction, less clogging means less mess, fewer issues with dust in paint & finish. That can improve quality and reduce re-work. Abrasives that clog less, cut continuously, and maintain their performance means you change discs/sheets less often. That saves downtime and consumable cost. E.g. the Mesh Line is designed to “virtually eliminate dust” clogging.

“In short, switching to INDASA abrasives can bring your bodyshop better product performance, more consistent quality, less waste and downtime, and ultimately better finishes that satisfy customers. The investment in better abrasives often pays for itself in less rework, smoother workflow, and reputational benefit.”
