The Treibacher Schleifmittel group — headquartered in Villach, Austria — is the worldwide leading producer of Fused Aluminum Oxide. Treibacher Schleifmittel has manufacturing facilities as well as sales offices in several location in Europe, America and Asia.
Global capacity is 200,000 tons per year of a variety of Fused Aluminum Oxide grains. Fused Aluminum Oxide is the most popular mineral for the abrasive industry.

Furthermore, Fused Aluminum Oxide is characterized by superior thermal properties, high load bearing capacity and excellent chemical stability.
