The ColorMax 2 engineered powder coating system incorporates features that ensure fast, contamination-free color change, easy installation and troublefree maintenance, allowing powder coaters to increase productivity and line efficiency.

UVMax Gloss is a one-coat, single-step, high-gloss finish for medium density fiberboard (MDF).

By including these paint pigments in your formulations you can formulate cost-efficient, high-performance coil, powder and stoving coatings in all kinds of color shades.

With increased awareness of sustainability, efficiency and safety, UV-curable powder coatings offer numerous opportunities for future growth.

Today’s coatings market expects more from its white pigments than brightness and opacity. White pigments, such as titanium dioxide (TiO2), barium sulfate (BaSO4) and zinc sulphide, are just examples of many ingredients possible in a complex coatings formulation.

The trade-off in the yellow and orange color space between the weatherability, heat stability and opacity of inorganic pigments versus the chromaticity, brightness and tint strength of organic colorants, in light of the decrease in use of pigments based on deprecated metals, has opened an opportunity for new colored pigment chemistries.

A full line of Teflon® powder coatings that are electro-statically applied to pumps, mixers, tanks, valves, and other components is available.

ImExtend™ 14CCL is a new ultrafine calcium carbonate developed for household-appliance powder coatings.
