March 29, 2011
The Shepherd Color Co. is
featuring its Arctic® line of
infrared-reflecting pigments and Dynamix®
stir-in pigments at Stand 7-521. Energy-efficient
and eco-friendly materials are huge right now and show no signs of slowing
down.
The Shepherd Color Co. is featuring its Arctic® line of infrared-reflecting pigments and Dynamix® stir-in pigments at Stand 7-521. Energy-efficient and eco-friendly materials are huge right now and show no signs of slowing down. Shepherd reports that infrared reflective, or “cool” products, is one of the most talked about technologies and is one of the most misunderstood. Many references in literature have equated cool products with being white. Arctic infrared-reflective pigments allow for the design of products that remain cool under the sun, without sacrificing color.
Dynamix stir-in pigment technology requires only simple mixing. The time it takes to reach complete dispersion will depend upon the intensity of the mixing equipment, but it can be achieved in as little as five minutes.
