Clariant unveils new range of sustainable aluminium dyes

MUTTENZ, SWITZERLAND: Clariant International Ltd introduces its sustainably-produced anodised aluminium dyes for indoor and outdoor applications.  
Clariant's palette of globally consistent, high-quality colourants for aluminium finishing is one of the broadest in the industry. Its ranges of dyes and aluminium finishing chemicals are manufactured according to strict Swiss safety and environmental requirements.
Additionally, Clariant uses its own specially-designed wastewater pretreatment plant – called AVORA - in Switzerland to ensure customers have the assurance of dyes produced through sustainable resource usage and with high safety standards that protect the environment.
Within its portfolio, Clariant offers a wide range of products which are formulated without using heavy metals in dyes (Sanodye), without borax in Anodal chemicals or without nickel in aluminium sealing solutions, to further assist customers and OEMs looking to improve the sustainability profile of their finishing processes or products.
From a performance view, Clariant's ranges provide varying levels of light-fastness and weather-fastness to support the requirements of different applications. For example, for exterior construction panels as used on globally-recognized landmarks such as the Eiffel Tower in Paris, France, and on the Biomedical Research Centre Seltersberg of the Justus-Liebig University Giessen, Germany.
Customers are offered global technical service and support before and after sales to ensure their dyeing processes are optimised and to aid their development of special products and solutions to enhance OEMs end-products, such as car parts, electrical devices and appliances.
"Clariant's unique combination of a 50-year history in dyes and chemicals production, constant innovation, and focus on sustainable solutions gives us, as aluminum finishes, easy access to the widest variety of colors and effects that not only cover our requirements for meeting design trends, but can help us to take aluminum into new product and application areas," said Hermann Feissli, CEO at Aloxyd AG, a customer of Omya.
Omya (Schweiz) AG is an exclusive distributor of Clariant's portfolio for aluminium finishing.
