Vibrantz Technologies announces that it will make an investment of almost $20 million to increase capacity of its patented Pearls™ sustainable tinting solution at its facility in Sittard, Netherlands.
The expansion is anticipated to increase Vibrantz’s global Pearls™ production capacity 20-fold (producing roughly 1.2 million liters per year) and position the company to better meet the sustainability, performance and cost demands of colorant producers and paint retail stores.
Focused on Growth & Innovation
Increasingly stringent environmental regulations mean colorant companies are looking for more eco-friendly solutions that don’t compromise overall paint performance. Vibrantz’s Pearls™ technology is the coatings industry’s volumetrically dosed tinting system of solid colorants designed for use in
architectural and
industrial paint applications.
Free of biocides and made with 100% recyclable packaging, Pearls™ extends paint shelf life, is easier to use than traditional tinting technologies, and contributes to a reduced cost of ownership for tinting systems in their entirety.
“
We remain growth and innovation focused and committed to investing in novel technologies that solve our customers’ toughest challenges,” said D. Michael Wilson, CEO at Vibrantz. “
The Pearls™ solution is an outstanding example of how the Vibrantz team is living out our purpose to bring color, performance and vibrancy to life, all while contributing to a more sustainable world.”
Located adjacent to Vibrantz’s existing colorant plant in Sittard, Netherlands, the new facility is expected to break ground in early 2024 and be operational in 2025.
