Hexigone Inhibitors announces their partnership with Ankush Enterprise to promote their technology throughout the Indian Paint and Coatings Market. Hexigone’s corrosion inhibitor, Intelli-ion®AX1 protects in a ‘smart’ way and is completely unique to the market.
Specialty Ingredient for Primer Systems
CEO and founder of Hexigone, Dr. Patrick Dodds, commented, “
India, a leading economy and fast-developing country is a key geographical region for our future growth strategy. When adding 1% Intelli-ion® AX1 as a specialty ingredient within primer systems, coatings manufacturers can save 5-10% on their anti-corrosives per kg of paint.”
“
Additionally, the co-blend will offer performance improvements to protect metal assets for longer,” added Dr. Dodds. Intelligent micro-reservoirs enable the coatings to react faster to the environment, triggering the release of the inhibitor ‘
on demand.’
The technology hasn’t gone unnoticed and Hexigone are already supplying coatings companies worldwide, as well as winning Materials Performance’s (MP) Corrosion Innovation of the Year in 2021 and The British Coatings Federation ‘
Sustainable Innovation’ Awards 2022.
Mr. Nilesh Parekh, founder of Ankush Enterprise said, “
We are thrilled to add Hexigone’s patented technology to our product portfolio.”
“
We pride ourselves in keeping abreast of the most innovative, new technologies and are confident our customers, old and new, will soon be testing with Intelli-ion® to reap the sustainability, cost, and performance benefits. We would like to announce to the Indian Paint and Coatings market that we are here to address your corrosion protection needs,” added Parekh.
