Wood Coatings

A&G Transparent iron oxide (TIO) pigments are most commonly used in furniture coating industry. Its natural tones and decorative shades enhance the overall appeals of the wood as well as providing high UV protection. Emphasizing physical distressing effects like worm holes, black spots, brushing marks and distinct grain pattern especially on American style furniture.

Automotive Paints

A&G Transparent iron oxide (TIO) pigments are used as automotive paints normally in combination with aluminum or pearlescence flakes in order to produce metallic effect finishes and golden color finishes. In current automotive styling formulations, the transparency and the depth of shade are of critical importance. A&G TIO pigments are not only able to meet these coloristic requirements, but also weatherable, low in cost and offering extra UV protection. Gold, brass and bronze finishes can be also achieved when applying A&G TIO pigments on metal handles, knobs, wheels, etc.

Plastic Application

Obtaining the characteristics of excellence transparency, UV absorption and chemical stability, A&G Transparent iron oxide (TIO) pigments are wildly taken in plastic industry as masterbatch or UV absorber for protecting goods in containers from radiation.

Interior and Exterior Paints

High weatherfastness and European Standard heavy metal content are the key factors that A&G Transparent iron oxide (TIO) pigments are wildly used in interior and exterior emulsion paints.
