Sponge Media™

Sponge-Jet has engineered a line of composite abrasives, incorporating the best abrasives or micro-abrasive particles within high-performance synthetic sponge. The diverse range of recyclable composites provide superior results for aggressive profiling and abrading or delicate cleaning on highly sensitive substrates. The synthetic sponge captures up to 95% of the contaminants, reducing fugitive emissions through its MicroContainment™ feature.

Super Media™1

SuperMedia™1 is designed to aggressively remove coatings or contaminants and will impart a high profile on both steel and concrete. The extreme surface roughness this product provides, while too great for most coatings, is well-suited for prep or removal of polyurea and rubberized coatings – as well as for removing hazardous contaminants prior to decommissioning and or disposal. The product is effective at removing 1/4in (6 mm) of concrete at a rate of 120ft² (11m²) per hour – and leaving an ICRI CSP-7 profile without fracturing stone. Abrasive blasting with SuperMedia is an effective preparation for concrete prior to coating and strengthening (with carbon fiber or other composites) – including the application of blast mitigation coatings.
