Super Abrasive Market Size, Share, Growth, Sales, Trade, Shipment, Export Value And Volume With Sales And Pricing Forecast By 2028

Global Super Abrasive Market – Overview

Super abrasives have properties such as extraordinary hardness, durability, longevity, and unrivaled performance that results in superior surface finish on hard materials. Additionally, they offer longer shelf life and help to cut down the downtime of machines. It helps to balance out the initial high cost by lowering machining expenses. For instance, metal-bonded design wheels, developed for more rigorous wear resistance can lead to smaller cycle time and enhanced life, thus cutting down the machining expenses for the consumers. 

Global Super Abrasive Market – Notable Developments

Some of the key developments in the global super abrasive market are listed below:

• In 2015, the Government of India announced a program called ‘Housing for All’. Under this program, the government encouraged and helped in building houses for its citizens. This activity is projected to boost the construction sector in India, and naturally help in driving the demand for the super abrasive market in the country as well.
• In December 2017, a prominent leader in the global super abrasive market, Saint Gobain Abrasives, announced that the company has merged its two well-known brands Winter and Norton to create a new one by the names Norton Winter. Norton Winter is now one of the key technology leaders in the global super abrasive market. The merger is expected to cater to a wider range of audience.
• In December 2017, Saint Gobain Abrasives announced the launch of its new Ultra Thin Grinding Wheel – Norton Quantum3 UT. This new product will provide better durability, comfort, and material removal.

Global Super Abrasive Market – Drivers and Restraints
