Defoamers & antifoams
Prevent trapped air bubbles and pinholes during mixing and application.
Additives & solvents
Chemical additives
The 1–5% of a formulation that makes the other 95% perform.
Chemical additives typically make up just 1–5% of a coating formulation, yet they decide how the paint behaves in the can, during application and over the life of the dry film. We supply additive classes for every stage — wet state, film formation and dry-film performance.
Types & classifications
Wetting & dispersing agents
Stabilise pigments, prevent clumping and keep colour consistent.
Rheology modifiers & levelling agents
Control viscosity, stop sagging and eliminate surface defects such as orange peel.
Coalescing agents, driers & catalysts
Help water-based films fuse properly and accelerate curing in 2K systems.
UV absorbers & light stabilizers
HALS and benzotriazole types that prevent chalking and colour fade in sunlight.
Matting agents, waxes & corrosion inhibitors
Tune gloss, add scratch resistance and chemically block rust on metal substrates.
Key applications
Architectural paints
Defoamers, thickeners and coalescents for reliable water-based wall paints.
Industrial coatings
Flow, cure and surface additives for demanding industrial finishes.
Printing inks
Wetting and dispersing packages for strong, stable colour.
Construction chemicals
