Klingspor is an internationally organised, efficient, and innovative family company involved in the business of tools for surface treatment and shaping by means of abrasion.

The Klingspor corporation was founded as a glue factory in Siegen in 1893 by Johann Friedrich Klingspor. In 1899, the company began with the production of abrasives. This initial venture was followed by the market introduction of countless innovations such as the waterproof abrasive paper or the abrasive mop. In 1955, the company moved production to the Hesse town of Haiger, approx. 30 km away from Siegen. This location also serves as the company's headquarters. 

Since the founding of our company in 1893 we have been leaving our mark on the history of leading-edge grinding equipment by introducing countless innovations. Our high-speed cutting-off wheels and grinding discs and our abrasive mop wheels and abrasive mop discs are only a few examples of major abrasive products that we managed to develop and successfully brought to market.
