GFC COLORANTS

Concentrated colorants for every tinting system

We make three families of colorants. Waterborne colorants work both in the factory and in tinting machines, universal ones tint water and solvent based products, and polyester resin ones contain no solvent. Every line goes through strict quality control, so shades come out the same every time.

Three colorant families

Waterborne, binder free

The ECO, ECO RU, PLANT and THERM lines tint waterborne products for building, industry, wood and floors. THERM uses cool technology, which reflects sunlight, so even dark shades stay cooler. It is designed for facades and roofs.

Universal

With the XIU line you use a single set of colorants for both water based and solvent based products, such as alkyd enamels. They are universal waterborne colorants with no binders and a low solvent content.

Polyester resin

VR60 is a range of colorants for tinting systems, while VR65 is a range of ready made shades with RAL codes. They are based on solvent free polyester resin and tint fibreglass, polyurea and high solids epoxies and acrylics. They stay very stable over time, because they do not settle or dry out.
