Coatings & Colorants
As a leading international supplier of crosslinkers, polyesters, performance resins, and colorants, the Coatings & Colorants business focuses on the paint & coatings, printing ink and adhesives & sealants industries.
Crosslinkers provides solvent-free coatings for industrial flooring, light-stable and weather-resistant automotive and auto-refinish paints, and crosslinking of powder coatings, e.g. for decorative corrosion protection. Polyesters are used in hard, but flexible coil and can coatings, such as those for building exteriors, cans, and instrument panels as well as in industrial adhesives.
Performance Resins improve the adhesion and flow behavior of coatings and adhesive systems and provide glossy and long-term corrosion protection.
Colorants includes architectural and industrial colorants as well as color systems and sales aids. For example, just twelve colorants and four different white base colors allow more than 1,000 hues to be mixed either on in-plant or point-of-sales basis.
As a specialist for the paints and inks industry, Tego Coating & Ink Additives produces additives, waterproofing agents and heat-resistant silicone binding agents. In the field of additive development, the emphasis is on aqueous and radiation-cured printing inks and paints. |
