Their objective is to understand your application in an effort to help determine the right product for your process, reduce finishing costs and increase production efficiencies.
Grain technology
Excellent abrasives are characterised by a perfect combination of quality materials. In order to achieve our high quality standards, we design and develop our own advanced abrasive grains in-house. This process strengthens our grain offering and ensures a quality solution for a wide range of applications.

And, with 200+ product lines, we are confident in our ability to provide the right coated abrasive solution for your specific application.
Production proficiency
Evolving from small-scale flint paper manufacturing to full-scale coated abrasive manufacturing, we continue to learn, adapt and implement processes that will benefit our customers. This sole product focus is what distinguishes VSM from other manufacturers.
VSM stands for
Quality
VSM customers can always expect to receive abrasives with a constantly high level of quality. VSM uses its own intermediate products, cutting-edge production technology and multi-level quality inspection.
Product quality
In the VSM in-house quality assessment laboratory, regular end checks are conducted on products - from microscopic examinations to grinding tests on in-house test facilities.
Intermediate product quality
Our quality promise starts by inspecting the raw materials we use. To be on the safe side, we produce our own finishes, binding systems and abrasive grits.
Production quality
A climate encapsulated spreading device, laser-controlled weight measurement, exact web guidance and control system and multi-level, protective drying facilities are just some of the factors that guarantee success in the production of high-quality abrasives. The result is a 'made in Germany' VSM quality.
