Goals / remit
| Goals / remit of the organisation: |
The Federation of the European Producers of Abrasives (FEPA) gathers National Associations and European manufacturers of abrasives. 220 companies from 17 European countries are members of FEPA. Abrasives products cover a wide range of applications from industry (car, machinery, energy, air & space, shipyard, wood working, glass…) to construction and consumer markets (DIY). FEPA covers the four types of abrasives products: Bonded abrasives (ceramic and organic), Coated (cloth, paper…), Superabrasives (Diamond and CBN) and Grains. Production of abrasives involves Ceramic, Mechanical and Chemical Industries.
The objectives of FEPA are to promote the safe use of abrasive products, to recommend and promote technical standards, quality and user guides, to provide the members with information for legal matters arising from the European Community, to study and determine the solution of the technical, economic and social problems common to the members and generally to represent the members in relationships with governments and regulatory organisations.
The Federation is a non-profit making organisation.
FEPA participates to the elaboration of international standards (ISO & EN) and publishes technical and safety documents ( Safety Codes, Safety Leaflets…). FEPA is generally representing interests of the European manufacturers towards the European authorities , other international associations and partners of the industry.
