Introducing our Matting agent Additives - Enhancing Coatings with superior Matting and Gloss

We are thrilled to announce the launch of our matting agents introduced into our rice husk precipitated silica product portfolio that are designed to revolutionize the world of pigmented coatings. Deriving from its unique properties and exceptional performance, our matting agent additives offer remarkable gloss control (from satin, semi-gloss, low gloss to dead matte) whilst exhibiting excellent matting efficiency.

We will be offering two types of these additives which are untreated and treated silica matting agents. Wax treated matting agent offers enhanced moisture barrier properties and humidity resistance for high performance applications for semi-gloss and satin finishes, while untreated matting agent provides better gloss control. This innovation opens up new avenues for coating manufacturers and promises to elevate the quality and aesthetics of a wide range of end applications.

Through months of Research & Development, we have produced these high whiteness silica matting agents to provide coatings with unmatched degree of gloss and impeccable matte finish. Achieving that delicate balance between retaining coating’s visual appeal whilst delivering exceptional performance proved crucial.
