For more than forty years, Eurogrit BV has been a major producer and supplier of blastcleaning abrasives for surface preparation of metal and stone materials. The company has been known even longer as a renowned producer and supplier of specialty sand and gravel products. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Our history The roots of the company’s activities date back to the year 1818, when Pieter van Loon established himself in the small village of Vreeswijk, as an independent supplier of sand quarried from a nearby riverbed. The company has subsequently been handed from generation to generation and continues to grow. After the 2nd World War, expansion was found in other materials such as fillers and flooring products. By then, silica sand was also being marketed as an abrasive for sandblasting. Gradually however, it became known that sandblasting carried a health risk through a condition of the lungs known as “silicosis”. As a result, in 1957, the Dutch government promulgated the Silicosis Law, which included the Sandblasting Decree, banning the use of (silica) sand for all sandblasting applications (in-house or outside, dry and wet alike) in The Netherlands. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Export By reacting swiftly to this new situation, the company has successfully managed to build up an important market position in the industry supplying a variety of abrasives that substitute and/or complement silica sand. In the early 1970s, the first export efforts were initiated, based on quality, speed and service and the company has since built a worldwide reputation as a reliable source of supply for virtually every kind of abrasive. A substantial part of the business is now export-related, with the company and its products represented in almost all parts of the world. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Our locations The companys headoffice is located in The Netherlands, at Nieuwegein - a municipality comprising the old village of Vreeswijk, the original founding place of the company. Modern production- and export shipping facilities are operated at both Nieuwegein and Dordrecht. The sales department at the Nieuwegein head office, services the Benelux countries and our export department is always on the alert keeping in touch with our customers and partners throughout the world.
