Colourants for every tinting need

Chromaflo Technologies will display its comprehensive portfolio of architectural and industrial colorants for POS and in-plant tinting. This includes the Colortrend® and Monicolor™ architectural colourant ranges, Chroma-Chem®, UCD® and Temacolor™ industrial colourants and solar-reflective colourants within the Novapint™ D and Colortrend® 810 ranges.

Colourants need to provide colour reproducibility, smooth functionality and technical stability, while having no effect on the properties of the final coating. Chromaflo Technologies offers this through their extended Chroma-Chem® industrial portfolio. This includes both water- and solvent-based product lines with broad compatibility across a wide range of different resin types, while having minimal impact on the paint film performance, as well as the CB/CBX dispersions (Cellulose Acetate Butyrate).

Novapint™ D colourants are developed for water-based exterior architectural paints and plasters, while the universal Colortrend® 810 and Monicolor™ A ranges are developed for architectural applications including solvent-based paints. Both ranges offer an intelligent combination of conventional colourants that have excellent solar heat reflection properties and an innovative black colourant to replace carbon black or iron oxide black. These unique ranges of colorants enable the formulation of dark colours that achieve less heat absorption compared to conventional colourants.

Chromaflo Technologies’ in-plant portfolio includes the Colortrend® C & XC (Low VOC) ranges for wate-based applications. Designed for in-plant production use, their high colour strength and batch to batch consistency provides a good base for achieving reproducible and economical colours. The colourant ranges are designed to ensure a good price/performance balance with a number of economical colourants for a lower overall tint cost.

Chromaflo Technologies’ colour matching and advance database management software, INNOVATINT that provides complete solution to colour matching needs and total control of tinting operations at POS outlets will be on display.
