3M Advanced Materials Division 3M™ Abrasive Ceramics

3M began as an abrasives manufacturer. For more than a century, we have refined our original technologies and complemented them with breakthrough inventions developed by other 3M businesses. Today, our abrasives rely on traditional strengths such as resin formulation, adhesives and coating, as well as the most modern technologies, from microreplicated ceramics, nonwoven materials and precision shaped grains. The result is a comprehensive range of abrasives that cut, grind, shape, finish, and polish with ease and precision.
