Wires, cables, pipes, insulation boards, chemical tanks and profiles are just some of the many building and construction products for which Ferro supplies colorants and additives.
Building and construction suppliers use various processes (pipe or profile extrusion, foamed insulation boards and injection-molded tanks), therefore, each product has specific requirements. Outdoor applications require the use of high-stability pigments and/or particular UV additive packages to prevent degradation of products subject to prolonged weather [heat, cold, sun, moisture] exposure. Products that come into contact with harmless as well as toxic chemical substances need special colorants and additives to ensure the chemicals do not affect the quality of the finished product.
You can depend on Ferro to develop high-quality colorants and additives for your specific needs with necessary approvals such as NSF and others.
