Typical uses of Caswell adhesives in UK abrasive manufacture are:

Grit coated foam blocks
High performance solvent based adhesives for bonding aluminium oxide and silicone carbide grit to polyurethane and polyethylene foam for the manufacture of woodworking, automotive, DIY, and many other types of abrasive foam blocks together with a range of coloured adhesives especially for the cosmetic market. Solvent and water based sealer coats are also supplied for finishing the blocks. Non-solvented adhesives will be the way forward and development products are close to completion.
