Manufacturing steel wool since 1956
Barlesa is the leading manufacturer of steel wool for the cleaning and do-it-yourself sector in Spain.
We are a company with a young and enterprising spirit, so we are focused on innovation and constant improvement of our products.
Steel wool is a composite of steel wires that have been stretched and interwoven to form a cohesive structure. This material has been a reliable tool in surface cleaning and renovation for decades.
Due to its properties, steel wool has applications in various sectors such as construction, automotive, cleaning, environment, etc.
If you believe that steel wool may have an application in your industry, please contact us so that we can work with you.
When crystallized, better gloss finishes are achieved thanks to its texture with more points of contact with the floor to treat wood and metal surfaces.
Its open structure allows better absorption of dirt and takes longer to clog. The rotary machine handles better because the sliding is smoother. Ideal for working with large presses and for treating first coats after polishing and first coats in general.
Its more flexible texture produces fewer shavings and avoids cuts. Produces a perfect and brilliant crystallization. Ideal for maintenance of clean and delicate floors
Steel wool is obtained by a mechanical process that, with the help of extremely hard blades, removes filaments from a wire. This results in a spongy mass of metallic filaments that resemble wool. By adjusting the sharpening process we can vary the thickness of these filaments, obtaining different grades ranging from thinner (00000) to thicker (3). To find the grade that best suits your needs, consult the thickness chart.
The steel strands have sharp edges. Unlike sandpaper, which grinds the material with abrasive points, steel wool acts like thousands of tiny blades that polish the material, resulting in a smoother and more uniform surface.

Its open and porous texture gives it the properties of a filter and an insulator.
Made of stainless steel, in addition to not rusting, it is not flammable and is more resistant to high temperatures and abrasion.
