Additives for the paint, varnish, resin, and adhesive industry.

These products protect paints, varnishes, resins, and adhesives from decomposition caused by microorganisms, both during the manufacturing process and during storage, thus extending their shelf life.

This line features products based on BIT, CMI/MI, MIT, Zinc Pyrithione, Bronopol, and Formaldehyde releasers.

The MIRECIDE® range includes microencapsulated biocides (MIRECIDE®-KAP) with low toxicity, more environmentally friendly, and featuring advanced encapsulation technology. In this line, products for the preservation of dry film are distinguished based on Diuron, OIT, DCOIT, IPBC, Terbutryn, and Zinc Pyrithione.

CONTRAPEN®products are designed to minimize foam formation in manufacturing, packaging and paint application processes.

They include products based on nitrogen derivatives, hydrocarbons, hydrophobic solids, fatty acids, surfactants, and fatty esters, both in dispersion and emulsion forms.

Suitable for aqueous, matte, high gloss paints and varnishes.

Supporting the paint sector with expert guidance on preservatives, fungicides, dispersants, and antifoaming agents, including regulatory aspects. Services include biocidal Challenge Tests (ASTM D2574), fungicidal/algaecidal testing (ASTM, UNE standards), biocide residue analysis by HPLC, microbiological testing, plant hygiene audits, and tailored antifoaming evaluations.
