Cleveland Pigment & Color distributes synthetic iron oxides in standard shades of red, yellow, brown and black. Cleveland Pigment & Color will process colors as a custom blend to meet specific shade requirements.

Synthetic iron oxides offer excellent light-fastness and good dispersability. They are non-toxic, non-bleeding and inexpensive. Moreover, synthetic iron oxides have uniform particle-size distribution, high purity and excellent tint strength. Used as directed, they offer one of the safest ways to color a product.

They can be used in plastics applications, rubber applications and coatings applications that include primers, protective metal coatings and enamels. Iron oxides also are found in artists' colors, ceramics and concrete applications. They can be used for products that require brighter colors, higher strengths and finer particle sizes.
