06.05.2025, Penang, Sunny. Through continuous innovation, PSA has upgraded and advanced our SGT system, boosting the hardness of our abrasives to 7.0 Mohs and above. This breakthrough not only elevates durability and efficiency but also empowers PSA to tackle the most demanding industrial challenges with confidence. Its increased hardness ensures longer life, greater performance, and unmatched reliability, while reducing the breaking rate to minimize dust generation during sandblasting—a true testament to our commitment to safety, excellence, and innovation.

29.01.2025, Bintulu, Rain/Flood. Today, the PSA warehouse faced the worst flood in recent history. Although the main storage area had been elevated with landfill, protecting most of our stock, the forklift parking bay was not spared. Tragically, we lost around RM 300K worth of PSA. The scene was chaotic—a true nightmare for the team, testing our resilience and determination in the face of nature’s fury.

18.06.2024, Penang – Sunny

27 June 2021, Penang, Sunny. What is PSA?
PSA stands for Premier Sharpshot Abrasive®, a type of Iron (Steel) Saturated Slag or Iron (Fe) Silicated Slag Granular. It is a synthetic, non-metallic, eco-friendly product manufactured in steel fabrication plants using Advance Rapid Slag Granulating Technology (R.S.G.T.) within an Electric Arc Furnace (E.A.F.) system, with temperatures ranging from 1473–1573 K (1200–1300 °C).

The molten silicate solutions produced in this process are ideal solution phases, due to the strong polymerization or associations formed by SiO₂ with basic oxides such as CaO, MgO, CoO, FeO, and NiO. The ‘bridging oxygen’ is consumed within the silicate network by the basic oxides to form SiO₄⁴⁻ tetrahedra, and ‘free’ iron oxides are present in the molten silicate structure.

Premier Sharpshot Abrasive, with the chemical composition Fe₂SiO₄/SiO₂/SiO₃, has a strong polymerization structure with SiO. Technology experts confirm that PSA Abrasive will NOT form free silica dust, making it a safe, environmentally friendly product. It contains no heavy metal chemical components and complies with the principles of Reduce, Reuse, & Recycle.
