Meeting demands for delicate chromatics of ever-finer quality, Hakuenka O, Hakuenka TDD, White IGV and other Shiraishi products-extender pigments are in the forefront of the search for greater beauty.



Bright new inks and paints

Our calcium carbonates make possible newspaper ink as black as night, subtle offset hues, Shimmering gravure tints, long-lasting satin-finish paints, strikingly clear baked-on coatings.

Ultra-fine calcium carbonate - superior in translucency, gloss and fluidity - means top-quality, low-cost ink and paint extender pigments.



A safer workplace

Recognition of the health hazards of organic solvents has stimulated a general industrial trend toward the use of petroleum-free materials.

For coating applications, water-based and water-emulsion materials, often with calcium carbonate as a key ingredient, are taking on ever-greater importance.

Unsurpassed in both quality and safety, calcium carbonate contributes to a healthier, brighter society.
