Our Solutions

  • Mica (F/C/M)

    Our highly lamellar and Micronized Mica with high aspect ratios, help you achieve superior stain blocking in your finishing paints. It also enhances adhesion and prevents cracking, improves UV protection in paints and is a cost-effective and easy-to-formulate solution.

  • Metakaolin

    Metakaolin serves as a pigment and functional extender in paints and coatings. This product has good dispersibility, good pozzolanic activity, high purity and strong chemical inertness. It results in improved volume resistivity, ageing resistance, sulfate resistance, strength in mineral systems, improved brightness and whiteness.

  • Cenokem

    Cenokem optimizes the performance of paints and coatings by reducing weight and enhancing application efficiency. It replaces traditional fillers in ceramic tile adhesives and elastomeric roof coatings, providing cost savings while improving material properties. For renders, plasters, and joint fillers, it enables higher spreading rates and reduces product weight by up to 40%, enhancing both product performance and worker safety.

  • Hollow Glass Microspheres

    The hollow structure provides excellent thermal insulation and reflectivity in coatings for buildings, industrial equipment, and pipelines. This helps reduce energy consumption by minimizing heat transfer and enhances durability in extreme weather conditions. In marine applications, microspheres contribute to reducing the weight of coating systems while improving buoyancy and corrosion resistance.

  • Fluorosilicone Defoamer

    It enhances the appearance and quality of coatings by eliminating surface defects caused by foam.

  • Fluorosurfactants

    Fluorosurfactants optimize surface tension reduction, ensuring superior wetting, spreading, and leveling. They prevent issues like cratering and improve adhesion to complex substrates, delivering smooth, defect-free finishes in both waterborne and solvent-based systems.

  • Magnesium Oxide (MgO)

    Our high purity Magnesium Oxide (MgO) with high dispersibility, serves as a self-cleaning and anti-bacterial pigment extenders for alkyd-based coating. It reduces reliance on using titanium dioxide as an absorbent and opacifying agent.

  • Organoclay

    Organoclay is a rapidly hydrating, water washed bentonite clay that can greatly enhance rheological performance in small dosage. It works well in both solvent and water-based systems, preventing pigment settling and sag resistance. With guaranteed storage stability in high temperatures, it enhances application leveling and syneresis control.

  • Clay based Rheology modifier

    It is a highly processed attapulgite clay with enhanced rheological properties suitable for water-based coatings and construction chemicals.
