For engineers, metalworkers, designers and product developers who demand full control over surface finishing, manual stainless steel grinding and polishing is often the solution.
Where standard machines reach their limits, manual work begins. Think of complex geometries, tight tolerances or visual details such as weld seams, radii and machining marks.
At Van Geenen, we have a specialised team that finishes every component with precision and care. By combining craftsmanship with modern facilities, we deliver high quality stainless steel finishing – visible in every detail.
Some parts require more than automation. With manual stainless steel grinding, components are processed using specialised tools and techniques – from rough pre processing to a controlled final result.
Our specialists:
correct deviations
level and smooth surfaces
remove weld seams and imperfections
All without compromising the geometry or integrity of the product.
Manual stainless steel grinding is therefore essential for:
complex shapes and internal corners
visible parts where finish is critical
components with tight tolerances
small series or one off products
In addition to grinding, stainless steel polishing plays a key role in the final finish. The surface is refined step by step until the desired level of gloss is achieved.
Depending on the application, this can range from a functional smooth surface to fully high gloss polished stainless steel.
Manual polishing is often used for:
visible parts with high aesthetic requirements
design products and custom work
components where mechanical finishing is not sufficient
This is where craftsmanship makes the difference.
Manual stainless steel finishing and reworking is used in situations where precision and control are essential.
Typical applications include:
removing weld seams from visible stainless steel surfaces
grinding and rounding edges and radii
removing milling marks and machining traces
finishing complex shapes and internal corners
correcting or improving existing finishes
visually refining stainless steel design products
These are applications where standard processes are simply not sufficient.
By managing the entire process in house, we ensure consistent quality and full control. Manual stainless steel grinding and polishing integrates seamlessly with other processes at Van Geenen.
Think of:
grinding to a defined roughness (Ra value) for technical requirements
ViwateQ® Finishing, a specialist alternative to wet blasting stainless steel
Because everything is handled in house, each step is perfectly aligned.
Van Geenen takes care of it: smarter, faster and efficient. No fuss, no middlemen - just complete, high-quality finishes from A to Z.
With generations of knowledge, high-end techniques and attention to detail, we deliver quality without concessions. This is how we proudly put our signature on every project.
We build lasting relationships, with personal contact and honest advice. Always involved, always accessible.
