The long life, the ability to resist environmental factors and retain color are also indispensable when choosing colors to be used in outdoor environments, whether as architectural coating, concrete landscaping, or industrial surface finishes or exterior building materials. Natural iron oxide colorants, though commonly accessible, may not be consistent or durable enough to endure tough outdoor environment, including scalding UV rays and drastic changes of temperature as well as exposures to water and moisture. Artificially created iron oxide pigment, on the other hand, is designed to be a non-beatable pigment in the outdoor environment that provides a rich, fade resistant color lasting several years. Being a manufacturer of non-metallic mineral pigments with high quality and inventive R&D, our synthetic iron oxide pigment is designed to support the most challenging industry requirements of the long-term outdoor coloring, which is why our pigment is the best choice in projects where its application is required.
Exceptional UV and Weather Resistance
Ultraviolet radiation is the killer of the outdoor pigments and tends to fade natural pigments and organic substitutes within a short period of time because of the variation in the pigments structures and impurities of particles. The synthetic iron oxide pigment is developed to have consistent chemical structure which absorbs and scatters off the UVs and so does not undergo photodegradation and color fading even under extended sun exposure. It also performs well under harsh weather conditions such as heavy rains, snow, high humidity and extreme changes in temperatures without leaving marks on its surfaces in the form of chalking, cracks, and discoloration. Our synthetic iron oxide, unlike natural iron oxide, will not shift in color or structure in any climates, so there are outdoor coatings, concrete and masonry that will be maintained in their looks throughout the duration of the project.
Unrivaled Chemical Stability and Environmental Compliance
Outdoor surfaces are in a continuous exposure to alkaline substrates (cement and lime), industrial pollutants, weak acids and moisture, all of which tend to dissolve of low quality pigments. Synthetic iron oxide pigment is chemically stable, not soluble in alkaline or acidic compounds, or in water, oil and organic solvents, i.e. It does not cause color to leak away nor does it deteriorate other material with which it has been combined. This stability eradicates such problems as powdering on the surface, discoloration, and structural damages, making the appearance and functionality of outdoor surfaces to be maintained. Better still, our synthetic iron oxide colorant complies with the international environmental standards without any heavy metals and other toxic additives. We do complete environmental compliance work on behalf of our customers, which is not only durable, but also sustainable and environmentally friendly.
Consistent Color and Reliable Batch-to-Batch Performance
Natural iron oxide finishes are plagued with color variance, difference in particle sizes and purity because of geological disparities in raw materials, which result in inconsistent finishes, and ill-matched colors in large-scale outdoor work. The manufacturing of our synthetic iron oxide pigment is controlled with strict procedures that ensure that all batches of the pigment will have consistent pigment particles and will have the same intensity of color and tinting power. The resultant uniformity creates a continuity finish to commercial structures, civic landscapes, roads and industrial infrastructures to prevent the probability of deviation in colors. It is also easily dispersible and thus can be combined with all the coating systems-concrete and masonry systems, and this makes it a better product in overall durability and finish of the outdoor application.
In any outdoor application where long color life is a key factor, synthetic iron oxide pigment is unquestionably the obvious choice and it has strength of weather that cannot be compared with natural pigments and that has consistent color performance and stability which is a major factor in the application. With our decades of experience in manufacturing the synthetic iron oxide pigment, and global quality guidelines and a streamlined smooth and efficient supply chain, our synthetic iron oxide pigment is the pigment that provides long lasting color brightness to the exterior which architects, contractors and manufacturers rely on. You need a pigment that will pass the test of the elements- you need our synthetic iron oxide pigment in your next outdoor project.
