Pigmentsolution expands additive production in Austria

In the second quarter of 2020, Pigmentsolution in Austria will build a fully continuous production plant for aqueous epoxy-functional silane emulsions without VOCs and emulsifier systems. It is thus relocating production from Obernburg in Germany to Regau in Austria. This plant continuously produces additives for the paints and coatings industry according to the Industry 4.0 concept.

Fully automatic additive production

Two reactors will be installed, one of which will be used exclusively for R&D of novel water-borne additives. These reactors are able to react automatically to customer requests and to be controlled order-related. Intelligent information systems enable customers to obtain information about production, order tracking and delivery status at any time.

The company works fully automatically in the production of additives with customer-related order processing and raw material purchasing. Production planning functions fully automatically around the clock. Quality parameters and analyses are checked fully automatically via laboratory automation. Product data can be checked online via a platform.
