Vapormatt, one of the world’s leading wet blasting companies, has developed a process that offers minimal environmental damage and a more consistent, uniform finish for companies looking to reduce the resistance carried through their overhead cables.

By creating a recipe that uses: air, water and an inert media companies are able to adopt wet blasting to achieve a greater capacity for current in their “non-specular” cables whilst decreasing the temperature of the conductor at a given ampacity.

The benefits of wet blast surface preparation from Vapormatt were presented at JIMTOF on stand Number E5027. The company drew attention not only to the advantages its technology offers to the tooling industry, but also the developments to its agency network and a key enhancement of its service capability.

After a great first season Vapormatt sponsered powerboat "NOSferatu" came away with 4 podium positions and 3 first places.

At Saturday's presentation evening the team came away with  both the "Havelet Trophy" and the "Best Newcomer Award".

"Having had a few teething problems in the boats first season this was a great result for us" comments Oliver Ashworth, a design engineer at Vapormatt. "Of the races that we competed in I was very happy with the boats performance, however am looking forward to further test work over the winter to have an even better season in 2013."
