SMC, BMC, Pultrusion, Filament Winding, Gelcoat, Cultured Marble and FRP Colorants
Polyester/ Vinyl Ester
PC – Unsaturated polyester based pigment dispersion
A 100% solids unsaturated polyester pigment dispersions compatible with resins used in molding processes; SMC, BMC, pultrusion, cultured marble and other FRP. Our extensive technical knowledge and expertise has given the PC series a virtually unlimited color range, low viscosities, and excellent weather stability. A full range of shades are available, including custom matched colors.

PCV – UV protected pigment dispersion
A UV protected pigment dispersion compatible with polyester and vinyl ester molding resins. Our PCV line is formulated with pigments and additives not only to be weather resistant themselves, but to protect the total molding compound from weathering for long-lasting exterior-grade composite parts. A full range of shades is available using organic and inorganic pigments, including custom matched colors.
EPOXY
EH – 100% solids epoxy based pigment dispersion
Epoxy pigment dispersion based on 100% solids epoxy resin with an epoxide equivalent weight of 190-208. EH is the product of choice for many applications including liquid cast epoxy parts, thermoset composites and pultrusion. Most colors are of pourable viscosity and are specifically formulated to protect against viscosity build, for improved shelf life. A full range of shades is available, including custom matched colors.
EHA – 100% solids epoxy based RESIN + REATCIVE DILUENT
The EHA product line consists of concentrated pigment dispersions in Bisphenol A epoxy resin and alkyl glycidyl ether (AGE) diluent. These low-viscosity colorants are designed for easy introduction and offer broad compatibility with most epoxy-based systems. A comprehensive selection of pigments is offered, including custom-matched colors.
The EHA line features excellent flood/float control and shelf stability with low VOC levels, outstanding pigment development, and strong performance attributes. Tint strength is controlled by weight to +/- 5%, and color consistency is ensured through quality control measures.
AmeriThik®
ATK - Mineral thickener dispersions for smc, bmc, and other frp applications
The AmeriThik® product line is designed to deliver precision in thickening profiles for predictable molding outcomes. All ATK products are formulated to allow sufficient homogenization between the resinous phase (A-side), liquid thickener (B-side), colorant, and glass before the inflection point of thickening and maturation of the molding material. The selected polyester carrier vehicle is proven to participate in thermoset FRP reactions without interfering with typical monomers, curatives, and initiators used.
