CW: How did the high performance pigments market fare in 2018?
Clariant: The market for high performance pigments (HPP) developed better than that for traditional pigments, and the demand for high performance pigments continues to increase as an offset to more traditional pigments due to multiple factors, including pigment performance characteristics, cost of usage, increased durability and raw material availability.
DCC Lansco: Use of high performance pigments continues to grow and earlier this year we announced a major expansion of our Canadian manufacturing capacity to be completed later this year to accommodate our higher sales. When complete we will be the largest manufacturer of benzimidazolone pigments for coatings in the North America including Yellow 151, 154 and Orange 36. We are also increasing our capacity to manufacture pigments used in the plastic industry including Yellow 62, 168, 180, 183, 191 and Orange 64.
Heubach: Demand for HPP continues to grow with demanding applications and securing supply has been our major concern. Heubach therefore started production of Anti Corrosive Pigments in our U
