As of April 2020, KRAHN Chemie Benelux BV will start distributing the precipitated silica products from PPG for ink, coating, adhesive and sealant applications in Benelux.
This agreement extends the existing cooperation between the KRAHN Chemie Group and PPG in Italy, Poland and France.
The cooperation comprises a range of synthetic amorphous precipitated silica products, including PPG LO-VEL flatting agents that reduce the gloss of coatings, paints, lacquers, varnishes and inks, while providing lower viscosity and better stir-in capability; PPG HI-SIL thickening agents that help achieve desired rheology properties as well as anti-sag/suspension performance with minimal impact on other system properties; and PPG INHIBISIL anti-corrosion pigments that are non-toxic and free of heavy metals.
“PPG holds a strong position in the silica market and is well-known for its broad and innovative range of high-quality precipitated silica products. We are pleased to expand our portfolio for the ink, coating, adhesive and sealant industry with the silica products PPG offers,” said Cristian Groenewegen, managing director of KRAHN Chemie Benelux.
