Micro Powders specializes in developing innovative micronized wax technologies to meet the formulator’s needs. In addition to innovative chemistry, the particle size of our micronized waxes is carefully controlled using laser diffraction analysis in order to ensure consistent particle size uniformity from batch to batch. Our newest unique “stir-in” wax additive includes AquaMatte 31, which provides consistent matting, stability, scrubbability, and burnish resistance in waterborne coatings. A commitment to quality and our customers is always our highest priorities. That is why our quality system has been awarded worldwide recognition under the current ISO 9001:2008 standard. A dedicated and experienced technical staff, backed by the technical service laboratory, is ready to assist customers.
