Kovax interface pads for the SA OEM Market

The South African OEM landscape is witnessing a rising trend: foam-backed abrasives. This abrasive material, with foam affixed, is purported to be more user-friendly than interface pads and is also a time-saver. So, what makes Kovax lean towards interface pads?

Interface pads: Paving the way for a sustainable future.

Foremost, Kovax is deeply committed to environmental sustainability. A key benefit of utilising interface pads is their potential to conserve materials and minimise waste. An interface pad boasts a longer lifespan, allowing clients to replace only the sandpaper rather than the entire pad. On the contrary, foam-backed abrasives usually find their way to the bin after a single use, leading to increased waste. To put it in perspective, a single interface pad can replace up to 500 foam-backed abrasives!

By opting for interface pads, we can drastically cut down on waste, championing a greener future. This not only ensures optimal results but also aligns with global eco-friendly trends. Every small step, like choosing interface pads, counts towards a larger environmental responsibility.

Comparing Interface pads and foam-backed abrasives

A standout advantage of interface pads over foam-backed abrasives is the flexibility they offer in the sanding process. With interface pads, one can opt for a harder pad for increased intensity or a softer one for uniformity and adaptability. This empowers your clients to obtain the most fitting outcome for their specific needs.

Such versatility is absent with foam-backed abrasives, limiting the customisation of the sanding process and potentially compromising the final result. Different tasks and surfaces invariably demand varied approaches.

In a nutshell: For those aiming for unparalleled results, interface pads are indispensable. Consider the analogy of a Formula 1 car's tyres. It's unheard of for a Formula One racer to rely on a single set of tyres throughout a race, right? Similarly, diverse surfaces and scenarios necessitate distinct materials, and sanding is no exception.

The benefits include:

- Championing a greener environment

- Efficient material usage

- Superior end results

- Enhanced control
