Washington Mills Ceramics Corporation is a manufacturing pioneer of ceramic tumbling media and a leading manufacturer of abrasive and non-abrasive materials since 1868. Our proprietary DURAMEDIA® products provide superior finishes for a wide range of products – from golf clubs to jet engine blades, and a wide array of processes – from burnishing surgical instruments to softening fabrics.

Over the years, Washington Mills has evolved as the world’s leader in converting naturally variable minerals into electrically-fused materials with precise, predictable qualities, carefully sized for peak performance – an essential prerequisite in proper media selection for virtually all mass finishing applications.

With our acquisition of the Wisconsin Porcelain Company (2001) – the first domestic manufacturer of ceramic preformed tumbling media – we have strengthened our position as the leader in the metal finishing industry.

Finishing Applications
From very fine burnishing to accelerate chemical deburring, we provide the industry’s largest selection of compositions, the most consistent sizing, and the largest inventory of finished media – ready for immediate delivery.

Our typical compositions consist of nuggets, spheres, cylinders, triangles, cones, stars wedges, pyramids and tetrahedrons effective in deburring, burnishing, surface finishing, metal removal, deflashing, polishing and brightening. Washington Mills Ceramics Corporation is the only ceramic media manufacturer that produces its own abrasive grain allowing us to maintain quality control right from the start.
