Products Overview

Shepherd Color pigments are highly-engineered ceramic colorants — and that means tough! They are impervious to sunlight, chemicals, and thermal attack. They are compatible with not only widely used polymers, but also the most exotic, difficult-to-formulate systems. Their extreme inertness defends against migration from plastics or coatings, and helps to ensure environmentally sound, non-toxic recipes.

For more than three decades, Shepherd Color pigments have been the pigments of choice for premium coil coatings. Makers of these advanced products rely on Shepherd performance for their warrantees of twenty-five years or more. Choose Shepherd pigments and be sure to get maximum durability for your products!

Vitreous enamel producers can count on Shepherd pigments to withstand processing temperatures of more than 700 °C. Imagine the stability that can be achieved in your advanced polymer!

Many Shepherd pigments meet U.S. and international regulations for direct food contact. Eliminate uncertainties and concerns about safety and handling of pigments — use Shepherd pigments in your most sensitive applications.

In short, solve your most difficult coloration problems with Shepherd Color pigments!
