Applications by industry

Choose an industry to see where our calcium carbonate is used and what it does in each application.

Coating

Paints, inks, adhesives and putties.

Adhesive

Viscosity control and extension in industrial adhesives.

Epoxy, plastisol, gasket and PVAC adhesives, leather and rubber adhesives, and plywood glue.

Paint

Opacity, hiding power and film strength.

Emulsion paints for interior and exterior, enamel, anti-corrosion and solvent-based paints, and powder coating. Fine grades raise opacity and hardness while lowering resin cost.

Ink

Printing inks with a clean white base.

Offset and flexo printing inks, where ultrafine, high-brightness grades act as an extender without dulling the colour.

Road Marking

Thermoplastic road-marking paint.

Filler for thermoplastic road-marking compounds, giving body, whiteness and wear resistance to the line.

Wall Putty & Wood Putty

Dempul tembok and wood putty.

Fine and medium grades give putties smooth application, low shrinkage and an even white finish ready for painting.

Roofing

Coatings for metal roofing sheet.

Filler in the coating systems applied to spandek metal roofing, adding opacity and hardness to the finish.

Polymer

Plastics compounds, masterbatch and finished goods.

Polypropylene

Filled polypropylene for cups, containers and housewares.

Calcium carbonate raises stiffness and heat resistance in PP and lowers cost, for thin-wall cups, containers and household goods.

Polyethylene

Filled polyethylene for film and moulded parts.

Used in HDPE and LDPE compounds and film masterbatch, improving stiffness, printability and processing.

Polyvinyl Chloride

Rigid, semi-rigid and plasticised PVC.

The widest plastics application for calcium carbonate.

Synthetic Grass

Filler for artificial turf backing and yarn.

Adds weight and stability to turf backing and cost-effective bulk to the yarn compound.

Calcium Pellet

Calcium carbonate filler pellets.

Pre-compounded calcium carbonate pellets, ready to dose directly into PP and PE processing lines.

PVC product types

Masterbatch

High-loading filler masterbatch.

Compound cable

Wire and cable compounds.

Hose

Flexible PVC hose.

Shoe soles

PVC and plastisol soles.

uPVC roofing

Rigid uPVC roofing sheet.

Foam

PVC sponge and foam products.

Construction

Mortar, boards and building materials.

Mortar

Plaster, grout, tile adhesive and skim coat.

Coarser grades add body, workability and coverage to plaster, tile grout, tile adhesive and skim coat.

Board

Gypsum board and PVC board.

Filler in gypsum (gibson) board and PVC board, giving a consistent white core and dimensional stability.

Rubber

Natural and synthetic rubber goods.

Glove

Latex and nitrile glove compounds.

Fine grades in latex and nitrile dipping compounds, improving film formation and reducing cost.

Shoes

Soles, sandals and footwear.

Rubber soles, sandals and footwear compounds, where calcium carbonate reinforces and extends the rubber.

Tire

Tyre and tube compounds.

Filler in tyre and inner-tube rubber compounds, contributing hardness and lowering compound cost.

Rubber Sheet

Industrial rubber sheet and mats.

Rubber sheet, mats and industrial parts, with coated grades improving dispersion and reducing water pickup.

Automotive

Rubber and plastic automotive parts.

Seals, hoses, mats and moulded autoparts in rubber and plastic compounds.

Carpet

Filler for carpet backing.

Adds weight, body and dimensional stability to the backing of carpet and floor coverings.

Synthetic Leather

PVC and PU synthetic leather.

Filler in the coating layers of PVC and PU synthetic leather, improving hand feel and reducing cost.

Consumer goods

Everyday products and household materials.

Soap

Cream and bar detergents.

Bulk, mild abrasion and a bright appearance in cream and bar soaps and detergents.

Toothpaste

Mild abrasive and white base.

Ultrafine, high-brightness grades give a gentle polishing action and a clean white paste.

Textile

Interlining and stiffened fabric.

Filler in the stiffening compounds used for interlining and kain keras in garment production.

Pet Litter Bedding
