CARM – Abrasive paper and abrasives for leather finishing

CARM was created to work leather. Our abrasive paper, sanding paper and abrasive belts are developed for tanneries that need stable cutting, regular finishing and consistent results on leather.
It is a brand designed for the leather industry, where abrasive performance must remain controlled, repeatable and reliable.

Abrasive paper for tanneries and leather processing

CARM products are used in finishing departments for buffing, sanding, grain correction and surface preparation.
They are suitable for wet blue, crust, dry leather, nubuck production and many other tannery operations.

We supply abrasive paper rolls, abrasive sleeves and abrasive belts for tannery machines.
Special attention is given to abrasive belts for Aletti and Bergi machines, usually available from stock or with short lead times.

CARM is not a generic abrasive adapted to several markets.
It is a product line built around the real needs of the tannery industry.

LB – Light Brown

Universal aluminum oxide abrasive paper, suitable for almost all leather processing. It can work both dry and wet leather and is the most versatile solution in the range.

FB – Fire Brown

Double-resin abrasive paper developed for humid environments and wet leather. It offers excellent water resistance, stability and good durability in demanding tannery operations.

RC – Resin Coated

Stearate-treated abrasive paper designed to achieve a softer touch, reduce heat generation and extend working life. Highly appreciated when the final leather feel matters.

AB – Abrasive Backed

Abrasive paper with cotton cloth backing, used to improve the leather grain and make the surface more even and regular.
