Paint & Coating Systems

Fibrilva microfibrillated cellulose (MFC) and cellulose fibers offer a wide range of applications in the paint and coatings industry. MFC provides rheological structure, prevents sagging and sedimentation, ensures homogeneous pigment distribution, and enhances color intensity and film durability. Thanks to its thixotropic behavior, it enables optimal spreading in spray, roller, and brush applications.

Cellulose fibers, on the other hand, act as microstructural reinforcement particularly in thick-film applications, providing crack control, tensile strength, and film flexibility. This synergy ensures high performance across a wide spectrum, from water-based decorative paints to industrial coatings, elastomeric roof systems, and barrier coatings.

Sub-Application Areas

  • Anti-sag performance and rapid viscosity recovery in epoxy 2K systems
  • Reduced water absorption and crack resistance in elastomeric roof coatings
  • Mud crack prevention and improved film flexibility in exterior coatings
  • Color stability and sag resistance in interior paints
  • Uniform spreading after spraying in protective coatings
  • Reduced cracking tendency and extended open time in wood coatings
  • Sustainable alternative for food-contact barrier coatings
  • Prevention of sedimentation and enhanced color intensity in pigment dispersions
