Printing & Ink

Fine Pearl / Metallic Powder, 5–25 µm avoids mesh clogging and gives smooth, sharp prints. We match grade to your mesh count and ink viscosity.

Oversized particles clog fine meshes. Use < 15 µm for gravure/flexo and 5–25 µm for screen; we recommend per your aperture and viscosity.

Yes — our interference/chameleon grades are stable under UV cure and show angle-dependent flash. Share your UV formulation and we’ll confirm compatibility.

Pearl gives softer iridescence; metallic gives sharper mirror reflection. Many labels blend both. We supply color-matched samples for your stock.

Yes — Color-Changing (UV/temperature reactive) and Glow Powder are used in security and brand-protection print. We discuss activation range under NDA.

Loading depends on opacity, film weight and density. Start at the lower end of the directional range and titrate. We provide TDS starting points.

Some fine grades span processes, but surface treatment and particle size differ. We map the correct grade per process and substrate.

We support REACH/registration documentation under confidentiality. We do not publish ECHA numbers on public pages; compliance files are available under NDA per grade/shipment.

Use a compatible rheology modifier and pre-wet the pigment in co-solvent/dispersant before letdown. Avoid excessive high-shear milling.

Borosilicate or Special Effect Pigment gives the highest clarity and depth on premium coated stock; synthetic mica is the high-brightness alternative.

Yes — send a physical sample or Pantone reference; we return a matched proposal including recommended particle size and substrate for your print process.

Yes. Tell us what you make and we map the right effect pigment to your process — a one-stop color solution from design to finished goods.

Yes. Free 5–10g samples ship within 3 working days in foil bags or bottles.

Most products have a 1kg MOQ, with a few from 10g, with packaging from 5–10g samples up to 25kg.

Yes. For qualifying orders we stand behind product quality and committed lead time — if either falls short, we make it right through replacement, rework or refund.

Send a sample and we return a matched formula within 48 hours, supported by 10,000+ standard colors.

Yes. We export to 100+ countries and have served the global market since 2003 (20+ years). We handle international shipping and the documentation needed for cosmetic / food-grade imports where required.

Some pigments span several uses — e.g. pearlescent and glow appear in cosmetics, coatings and DIY — but the right grade and certification differ by application. Tell us your uses and we map the correct grade.
