Pigments that stay true through production, and years of use.
Organic and inorganic pigments for Paints and Plastics by Alps.
We help paint manufacturers, plastic compounders and distributors with a full range of organic and inorganic pigments for automotive, industrial, decorative and plastics applications — from classical azo and benzimidazolones to quinacridones, Diketopyrrolopyrroles (DPPs), phthalocyanines and high-performance iron oxides.
Our pigments give you the weatherfastness, heat stability and shade consistency you can count on, batch after batch. Consistent quality, reliable delivery, honest technical support – that’s what we build our partnerships on.
APPLICATIONS
AUTOMOTIVE PAINTS
OEM Basecoat | Refinish | Clear Tint | Effect Layers
Automotive paints face the toughest test – UV, rain, chemicals, bird droppings, thermal cycling and stone-chip. Our automotive-grade pigments meet OEM and refinish standards for weather resistance and chemical fastness.
Long-term Weather-fastness
Lightfastness for extended outdoor exposure without chalking or fade.
Metallic & Effect Friendly
Transparent grades that work cleanly with aluminium and mica flakes in basecoat layers.
Refinish-Ready
Reliable colour match for body-shop systems.
INDUSTRIAL PAINTS
Solvent-based | Water-based | Coil Coating | Powder Coating
Industrial paints protect machinery, infrastructure and appliances in punishing environments. Our range covers iron oxides for corrosion primers and high-performance organics for coil and powder coatings.
Bake-Stable
Heat resistance up to 260–300°C for coil and powder coating cure cycles.
Broad System Compatibility
Full range of grades compatible to water, solvent and powder – so no forcing a pigment into the wrong system.
Chemical & Salt-Spray Resistance
Good acid, alkali and humidity resistance for marine, structural and infrastructure applications.
DECORATIVE PAINTS
Emulsions | Enamels | Wood Finishes | Texture Paints
Decorative paints live with the customer – on walls, on wood, on metal gates – for years. They need to keep their shades, resist fading, and stay clean through repeated washing.
Colour Consistency
Tight Delta E control so shade cards match factory output.
Strong Tint Retention
Excellent tint strength in white emulsion bases.
Regulatory-Friendly
Heavy-metal-free organic grades for interior paints; low-soluble-salts iron oxides for eco-label formulations.
PLASTICS
Polyolefins | Engineering Plastics | PVC | Masterbatches
Colouring plastics has its own discipline – higher processing temperatures, migration risk and warping concerns in semi-crystalline polymers. Our plastic-grade pigments include heat-stable HPPs and non-blooming P-grades developed for polyolefins, PVC, engineering plastics and masterbatches.
High Heat Stability
Grades tested up to 300°C for engineering plastics and fibre applications.
Non-Blooming, Non-Bleeding
P-grade pigments stay put in polyolefins – no surface migration, no contamination of adjacent layers.
Controlled Warpage
Selected grades with nucleation behaviour controlled for HDPE and PP mouldings.
