Environmentally Friendly "Green" Aluminium Pigments for Coatings

Toyal, has also launched a new range of eco-friendly products for the waterborne coatings market. These "Green" pigments are produced through a sustainable process that eliminates hydrocarbon solvents and reduces emissions.

Key Benefits of Toyal's "Green" Aluminium Pigments:

• Sustainable Production: The Toyal TG Series is manufactured in water, eliminating the need for VOC solvents or hydrocarbons, resulting in no residual solvents or odour.
• Low Carbon Footprint: The TG-SD-W product range has CO2 emissions as low as 0.04 kg per kg of product, significantly lower than traditional pigments.
• Versatility: Suitable for automotive, plastic, coil, can coatings, and general industrial applications.
• Convenience: Classified as Non-DG, making these pigments easier to ship, store, and handle.
• Product Range: Includes fine to coarse silver dollar types, phosphate-stabilised to minimise gassing in water-based coatings, and available in paste or soft pellet form.
• Stability and Resistance: Silica-coated variants provide excellent chemical resistance and stability, suitable for food contact applications.
• High Aluminium Content: TG-WSD-PL products contain 80% aluminium pigment, are solvent-free, VOC-free, and carried in surfactant.

With these innovations, Toyal is setting new standards in the coatings industry, offering eco-friendly alternatives that do not compromise on performance.
