Since the initiation of these programs we’re already seeing significant results!
Sustainability Results
Innovation continues to remain a core competence of DCC LANSCO. We’ve invested in technology that has allowed us to launch several products that offer significant benefits to our customers – more value in use, expanding the colour gamut, and more! What follows is a summary of some of the projects and products we’ve introduced this year.
Technological Advances
- ‘Super Strong’ line of Bismuth Vanadate pigments deliver 25% greater colour strength vs. competition, creating better value in use, as well as a reduction in waste (less bags used) and shipment costs. Ask your DCC LANSCO sales representative about DCC Yellow 3GMX, 4GMX & RMX.
- Coming Soon! New even “super stronger” grade of Bismuth Vanadate. This new grade is 20% stronger than even the strongest grades currently available. Keep your eyes open for this innovation.
- New ‘Alkali Stable’ range of Bismuth Vanadate products for those sensitive, hard to apply substrates – concrete, silicone-silicate plasters, high PVC architectural coatings and stucco applications. Ask your DCC LANSCO sales representative about DCC Yellow 3GMXA, 2GTAA, RMXA.
- The cleanest inorganic orange pigment in the market, DCC® Orange ORS (PO.86) is the first pigment in its class and serves as an excellent starting base for orange colour matches in high-end plastics and coatings applications.
DCC LANSCO will continue to strive for Productivity and Sustainability improvements so you can rest assured you are buying your pigments from a sustainable long-term partner for your pigment needs.
