Information

In 1938, the Widenta factory was founded by Ferenc Chorin, who with his family generated 10% of the Hungarian GDP at that time. After the 1949 communist takeover of Hungary, Widenta became a Comecon strategic company and changed its name. Its production continued. The factory was privatized by a German businessman after the collapse of the communist regime; eventually, it became part of the MPF Industry Group, which has fully modernized its industrial equipment. After some major investments, Widenta is currently the largest grinding tool and cutting wheel factory in East-Central Europe and the third largest in Europe. The factory fulfills unique industrial orders under the world-renowned brand name Widenta.

The Widenta product portfolio includes:

• Vitrified and synthetic resin bonded abrasives
• Cutting and grinding wheels
• Flexible abrasive products
• Diamond abrasive blades and cutting wheels
