About B'laster

Although new to New Zealand and Australia, B'laster has been a household name in the USA since the 1950's.

THE BEGINNING

Born and bred in Cleveland, Ohio, the heart of the rustbelt. In 1957, William K. Westley started B’laster Chemical Company by developing the Original PB B’laster in response to a problem a friend was having with a phosphate mine in Florida. Their mining equipment could not be taken apart for maintenance and repair because of the build-up of corrosion, phosphate and moisture. Nothing could break through the corrosion—until PB B’laster. PB B’laster is still the #1-selling penetrant.

THE EVOLUTION

Over the next 50+ years, B’laster has expanded their portfolio of professional grade products and increased distribution. The company moved its headquarters and production facilities from Garfield Heights, Ohio, to a brand-new, state-of-the-art building in Valley View, Ohio where 30-50,000 cans are produced daily.

A NEW LOOK

In 2015, B’laster rebranded its look to reflect the evolution of the company and its vision for the future. B’laster’s rebranding represents its successful and ongoing transition to a company well beyond its heritage. The new B’laster logo evokes the power, durability and strength of the original brand and product line while maintaining the signature grassroots style in which the company was founded.
