Universal Blasting Products

Universal Blasting Products was established in 2006 and is located in Boksburg, South Africa. Among the hallmarks associated with our service is flexibility, friendliness and knowledge that is second to none in the local abrasive blasting industry. This is due to the rich knowledge sharing culture of owner, Mark Pollock, who brings nearly three decades of experience in the abrasives industry into every service encounter with our clients. Mark’s history in the industry dates back to 1987, and his level of expertise in the industry places him in a very small class of abrasive media experts locally. He is flanked by his son and Universal Blasting Products co-owner, Michael Pollock.
