Each product line is designed to deliver performance, versatility, and durability across a wide range of materials including wood, paint, filler, plaster, plastic, and metal.
Mesh Backed Abrasives: Superior Dust Extraction & Surface Finish
Trend’s new mesh-backed abrasives offer ultra high-performance sanding with exceptional dust extraction.
Featuring a universal fitment, these abrasives eliminate the need to align extraction holes, making them ideal for rapid worksite use. The open net structure, self-sharpening aluminium oxide blend, and anti-clog technology combine to deliver fast stock removal, enhanced safety, and a professional-grade finish across multiple applications.
Film Backed Abrasives: Aggressive Cutting with Maximum Control
The film-backed abrasives range is designed for users who demand consistent, aggressive cutting performance. With a robust, flexible film backing and dual-layer resin bond, these abrasives handle tough materials while resisting heat and tear.
Coarse grits (40G–80G) include a Zirconium-enhanced blend for aggressive removal, while finer grits (120G–240G) focus on controlled cutting for smooth finishes.
Hand Sanding Rolls: Flexible, Anti-Clog Rolls for Manual Work
The 115mm x 5m Aluminium Oxide sanding rolls offer a reliable hand-sanding solution with long-lasting grit retention and opencoat anti-clog technology. Ideal for everything from intricate woodwork to general surface prep, these rolls are available in grits from 40G to 240G, making them suitable for everything from heavy stock removal to delicate finishing.
Pad Savers: Protect Your Sander, Extend Lifespan
Trend’s pad savers act as a crucial buffer between your sander and abrasive discs. Designed with a multi-hole configuration for universal fitment and enhanced dust extraction, these sacrificial layers significantly reduce wear and heat build-up, ensuring your backing pad lasts longer – especially when using mesh abrasives.
Finishing Pads: The Final Touch for a Perfect Finish
Available in coarse (150G), medium (360G) and fine (800G) grades, Trend’s finishing pads are perfect for final surface prep, cleaning, polishing, and between-coat work. Made from durable nylon with uniform grain distribution and an open-web design, these pads resist tearing, clogging, and can be washed and reused – making them a sustainable, steel-wool alternative.
Committed to Performance & Innovation
With this latest expansion, Trend reaffirms our commitment to offering professionals the tools they need to work more efficiently and achieve exceptional results,” say Trend Tool Technology. “This abrasives range is all about performance, precision, and durability – three values at the core of everything we do.”
