The Next Generation of Aluminum Pigments

 

Meet the next generation of aluminum pigments with the new VERSALAN: a ready‑to‑use, dust‑free solution that streamlines processes and elevates surface finishes.

Designed for professionals who demand cleanliness, safety and formulation flexibility, this new product delivers consistent visual effects with simplified handling.

Revolutionary handling, sustainable, safe and cost saving 

Nadine Friedrich, a paint laboratory technician at ECKART and one of the developers of VERSALAN,
 explains the product’s benefits and how easy it is to use.

VERSALAN sets new standards: an aluminum pigment that makes processes cleaner, faster, and safer.

The video shows a direct comparison between standard products on the market and VERSALAN:

How does VERSALAN behave in water? 
How well and quickly can it be dispersed? 
What about the amount of material required? 
Is no solvent really needed? 

See for yourself!

This video shows how modern aluminum pigments not only simplify processes but completely redefine them. The clean processing, free-flowing properties, and immediate dispersibility are clearly demonstrated here.

The flame test proves that VERSALAN is flame-retardant. It is therefore not classified as a hazardous material—for our customers, this means significant savings on storage and transportation.

 

What makes VERSALAN so special?

A protective SiO₂ layer combined with a free‑flowing, dust‑free preparation makes integration into production straightforward and reliable.
Dust-free handling ensures maximum cleanliness and safety in the workplace.
The VOC content is less than 5%, thereby meeting modern sustainability and regulatory standards.
VERSALAN is not a hazardous material.

Efficiency that reduces time and cost

Direct dispersibility — even in pure water — removes the need for pre‑wetting, solvents or extra processing steps. That means faster colour adjustments, lower processing costs and greater freedom in formulation design.

On the left, you can see that VERSALAN disperses completely in pure water.
On the right, for comparison: A conventional product requires a solvent to achieve the same degree of dispersion.
 

Controlled effects for every application

Available in multiple particle sizes, the range produces effects from bold brilliance to subtle metallic elegance. It is ideal for Automotive OEM & Refinish, industrial coatings, UV‑curing systems, 100% systems, plastics, and RIM, FIM & film applications.

Safety and logistics advantages

The solvent-free formulation is extremely flame-resistant and the product is not classified as dangerous goods. This simplifies transport and storage and reduces regulatory complexity for global supply chains.
