INDASA has introduced the new Rhynogrip HT Line Ceramic — a product that sets new standards in abrasive technology. This innovative abrasive is engineered to enhance productivity and efficiency in the most demanding substrates, especially during the initial stages of the repair processes.
Innovation Backed by Industrial Investment
The internal development of the HT Line Ceramic abrasive is a clear output of the latest strategic investment program focused on expanding and improving INDASA’s manufacturing capabilities. As part of this initiative, new production technologies and automated systems were introduced at the company’s production facility, thus promoting innovation-led processes.
Precision Engineering: Our development process
The development of Rhynogrip HT Line Ceramic involved extensive research and laboratory testing, as explained by João Castro, INDASA's Product Development Manager:
“Our process began with the meticulous selection of raw materials, focusing on self-sharpening ceramic grain technology. This mineral ensures the abrasive maintains consistent cutting power, as the grains fracture in a controlled way, continually revealing sharp edges. We also redesigned the backing material, utilising robust paper and advanced resins to provide dimensional stability and thermal resistance in the most demanding applications.”
This comprehensive approach has resulted in an abrasive that delivers not only superior performance but also reliability over extended periods of use.
User-Centric Design: Efficiency and Value
From the end-user's perspective, Rhynogrip HT Line Ceramic is designed to maximize productivity in the early stages of the repair process — which remains a critical factor for every trade professional in any industry.
Humberto Plácido, INDASA's Technical Manager, highlights the practical advantages:
“HT Line Ceramic offers tangible benefits to professionals. It’s an abrasive that lasts longer, with a fast powerful cutting action throughout its lifespan. Resulting in a superior performance even on the most challenging substrates.”
Our Group Technical Manager also emphasizes the role of ULTRAVENT technology, INDASA’s advanced dust extraction system:
“Efficient dust control is vital — not only for operator health but also to ensure cleaner sanding with minimal clogging. The unique hole configuration enhances airflow, resulting in a more consistent finish and extended abrasive lifespan.”
