Environmentally friendly, water-based primers are formulated with several different components – one being anti-corrosive pigments often classified as ecotoxic. To get around this issue, formulators have had no choice but to use zinc-free pigments that offer less versatility and performance than pigments based on zinc phosphate.

Nordmann partner SNCZ has the solution: using its patented ACE technology, the company is now producing a range of unique, environmentally friendly pigments based on zinc phosphate that meet a wide variety of customer requirements (see below). Nordmann distributes these pigments in Austria, the Czech Republic, Germany, Hungary, Poland, Slovakia and Turkey.

Key advantages:

• Extremely compatible with both solvent- and water-based formulations
• Allows eco-friendly and high-performance paints to be formulated
• No transport or storage restrictions
