Brands in Metallic Effect

Ronastar® high-performance pigments upgrade your products to an unrivaled level. They show up with superior performance such as extremely high chroma, luminous matte effects or crystal-clear sparkle. The majority of Ronastar® pigments display exceptional sparkle, some of which appear even larger than their actual particle size. Others reveal attractive crystal-clear sparkle on small particle scale. Selected pigments impart an extremely smooth and soft feel on the skin and also provide long-lasting properties and effect. Ronastar® even unites deep mystic black with a unique glossy shine and excellent coverage in one intense effect pigment.

The REFLEX™ Natural pearl series is based on a natural-mica-based substrate. This series is coated with titanium dioxide, iron oxide or a combination of both, and provides high luster, high chroma, opacity and excellent batch consistency. This series includes various products and particle sizes for general purpose applications.

STARBRITE’s unique characteristics enable the formulator to achieve a smooth, mirror-like metallic effect with a highly-reflective, brilliant finish due to its exceptionally high surface area and aspect ratio. These products are supplied as 10% dispersion in ethyl acetate solvent, with certain other solvents available upon special request. STARBRITE Reveal offers broader compatibility and a greener manufacturing.

PolyClad is a highly reflective foil sheet, specially clear coated or transparently colored then precisely cut to a specific particle size distribution. This light, fade resistance and colorfast material is an ideal additive for plastics, injection molding, roto-molding and masterbatch extrusion. Due to the technology the Polyclad is not recommend for use in water based equipment.

Decorative aluminium pigments contain an inexhaustible spectrum of effects, from soft white shimmer to spectacular glittery sparkle, giving designs a contemporary and premium appearance for a wide range of applications.

Benda-Lutz is one of the global players for metallic pigments production for the paint, powder coating, ink and plastic industries as well as one of the main producers of aluminum flakes for the autoclaved aerated concrete industry. Benda-Lutz has four production sites - in Austria (headquarters), Poland, Russia and in the USA.

STABIL based on leading technology, this series of inorganic encapsulated aluminum pigments provide a variety of optical effects with long term stability and gassing resistance for waterborne.

SPLENDAL is a microscopically thin non-leafing aluminum platelet suspensions produced via physical vapor deposition (PVD). This unique manufacturing technology provides perfectly smooth and uniform flakes for extraordinary brilliance and coverage.

Newer paint application systems subject coatings containing aluminum pigments to tremendous shear forces. These mechanical forces can have the tendency of dulling the metallic appearance of the final coating by breaking and deforming the individual aluminum flakes. Silberline's TUFFLAKE line of circulation-resistant pigments is specifically engineered to withstand these mechanical forces and maintain their targeted appearance.

MAXAL is a automotive stylists will be interested in the exceptional brilliance and travel of MAXAL. These non-leafing, lenticular grades are produced via sophisticated milling processes yielding narrow particle size distributions and polished flake surfaces.

Silberline's SILVET technology provides improved ease of handling, dispersion and compatibility in the extrusion of powder coatings. Metallic powder coatings pigmented with SILVET granules have the benefit of no picture frame effect and offer excellent recyclability and penetration into recessed areas. SILVET aluminum pigments are carried in a polymer known to be compatible with Epoxy, Hybrid, Polyester, Polyurethane and Acrylic powder coatings.

Pearlescence plus absorption equals color! Colorona® color luster pigments add not just color, but ready-to-use, intense, vivid color and shine. The shades of the Colorona® pigments are particularly intense, combining deep absorption color and interference effect all in one. The combination of pearl luster and color in one effect pigment results in a significantly more brilliant color effect than a simple mixture of the two components.
