Pigments used in Pillcoat

Natural colors: These colors are synthetically prepared from organic and inorganic compounds, which are derived from animal, vegetable and mineral sources. These colors are less stable toward light and heat.

FD & C Lakes: Lakes are color additives produced by the absorption or precipitation of water soluble dye onto a hydrated base or substrate rendering the color insoluble in water. Lakes are more stable than the corresponding water soluble dyes.

Oxides: Iron oxides are produced from ferrous sulfate with the most common forms being that of yellow, red and black. Oxides are stable pigments.We provide color guide to make it easy to the customer for selecting the shade of their choice.
