Durable Bluish-Red Pigment for Seed Film Coatings

Pigment Red 48:2 is a high-performance lake pigment that produces a strong, clean, bluish-red shade. As a calcium lake, it is insoluble in water, which is a key advantage for seed coatings. This property prevents the colour from bleeding or washing off after application. It offers good lightfastness and strong colour, making it an excellent choice for creating a durable, non-migrating film coating on seeds.

Applications
  • Seed Coating: Suitable for creating durable, uniform film coatings with good adhesion and stability.
  • Fertilizer Colouring: Used to provide consistent colouring to granular and powdered fertilizers for identification and differentiation.
