    Responsibility

    Uncompromisingly clean colors

    As a company in the chemical industry, we, of course, have the special responsibility of developing products that offer the utmost in safety and soundness to humans as well as the environment. Especially when processing thermoplastics, a harmless starting product can quickly lose its chemical and physiological harmlessness. Our color preparations are so well-engineered right through to the finished product in which they are used that they pose no risk at all to consumers. Regular internal and external checks ensure the safeness of our colors.

    Environmental and Energy Management

    Also during production itself and when operating our facilities, we are always careful not to consume energy unnecessarily and to reduce our emissions to a minimum. Throughout our existence, we have always maintained our production facilities at the cutting edge of technology in order to serve the needs of our customers optimally. As a result, this technology has also become steadily more efficient. At the same time, however, we continually optimize our procedures and processes in order to reduce energy consumption. Our integrated environmental and energy management system is certified according to ISO 14001 and ISO 50001.

    Philosophy

    A high-class product range, cutting-edge technology, and a customer proximity that is put into practice: these are the building blocks of our corporate philosophy. From the point of initial contact, we want our clients to see us as a reliable, efficient, and competent partner. And at the end of a joint project, you should hold a result in your hands that corresponds exactly with your ideal and simply makes you happy.

    Our strategic measures for achieving customer satisfaction include a high-quality and diverse range of colors, assistance with products from design through to series production, advising our clients on-site in application-related and coloristic matters, as well as precise analytics.

    Up until now we have been very successful and this is reflected in the fact that we are seen in the industry as a pacesetter for innovative ideas and a pioneer for new applications and solutions for coloring plastics. And we will also actively work in the future to constantly reinvent ourselves and our products in order to continue bringing color into your life.
