EnvironOxide™

Hoover Color Corporation offers EnvironOxide™ pigments to the paint and coatings industry, offering a way companies can further develop their “green” technologies. Through an accord between Hoover Color Corporation and Iron Oxide Recovery Inc., iron-rich sludge from abandoned mine-shafts is transformed into a trio of pigments that are brown in color, yet have a range of undertones from red to yellow to blue.

EnvironOxide™ pigments are light-fast and chemical resistant. BR-832 is heat stable to temperatures of 600°F, while BR-833 and BR-834 are heat stable to 300°F. Their tinting strength is comparable to traditional iron oxides. The use of these pigments can contribute towards LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) accreditation. The pigments can be used in paint, coatings, mortar, grout, stucco, plastics, pavers, roof tiles, and other products.
