Ziegler & Co. Naturprodukte Silmer is embedded in the chalk cliffs near the Channel coast, were washed down by the sea, moved on the seafloor and shaped round flint pebbles. These pebbles gathered near the coast. The are quarried and processed by washing and sorting In a calcining process in shaft kilns at 1600°C, the flint is converted to Cristobalite.

Ziegler & Co. Naturprodukte MicaCelia is due to its high lamellarity and purity a very special functional filler. The finely tuned process of selection, grinding and classification guarantees a high aspect ratio and highest purity. As a natural silica, MicaCelia is chemically inert, resistent to most acids and oxidation, unsoluble in water and has a high temperature resistance. MicaCelia as a very pure muscovite mica exhibiting excellent electrical insulation properties. MicaCelia acts as a functional filler in anticorosion paints and in wall coatings and textured finishes, both for crack control and gloss control. Its lamellar structure allows to improve application of the coatings and their adhesion.

Ziegler & Co. Naturprodukte Boruvit is the glass powder Boruvit acts as a functional filler in coatings by its transparency, which stays neutral with any pigmentation. It ensures a longer lifetime for the coating due to the absorption of UV-radiation. Being a mechanically hard filler, it will increase scratch resistance and the particle shape will improve the adhesion and co-adhesion of coatings.

Granomar™ granules are produced from the purest and best Carrara Marble available. The raw material is selected in the whitest quarries from the Apuan Alps (Tuskany). The quality results of the optimum properties of Carrara Marble for wall finishes: a low hardness but a high mechanical stability and a high whiteness with low transparency.
