UV Resistant Pigments & Functional Additives

Product Overview

Fibreroot Pigment – UV-Resistant Pigments & Functional Additives
Engineered to withstand New Zealand’s high UV exposure, these premium-grade dispersions safeguard polymers and composites against sunlight degradation. Ideal for outdoor products including PVC profiles, FRP panels, marine coatings, tanks, pipes, and structural components.

Core Product Variants

• Fibreroot UV Absorber Additive

• Fibreroot Heat Stabilizer Additive 

These functional additives are developed to enhance polymer durability under heat and UV exposure—ideal for long-term, outdoor-grade color performance.
 

Key Features

• UV Absorbers & HALS Protection: Inhibits photodegradation caused by sunlight and UV radiation, preventing cracking, chalking, and color fading in long-term use.

• Heat Stabilisation: Controls free radical formation, delays high-temperature degradation, and maintains color integrity during processing and exposure.

• Polymer-Compatible Liquid Formulations: Easy to blend into resins or compounding systems for seamless import into processing workflows.

• Clean-Handling & Cost Efficiency: Liquid additives eliminate dust, reduce clean-up time, and offer precise dosing—improving safety and operational hygiene.
  
  

Technical Parameters

• UV Absorber Additive: Powder or concentrated solids in liquid-compatible form. Used at low dosage to shield polymers from sunlight-induced breakdown.

• Heat Stabilizer Additive: Process stabilizer to maintain polymer integrity and color during high-temperature operations.

• Compatibility: Suitable for PVC, PE, PP, FRP resins, adhesives, coatings, and marine composites using liquid feed systems.

• Usability: Compatible with inline dosing systems, batch mixers, or tumble blending for clean, accurate addition.
  
  

Applications

• Outdoor PVC Products: Tanks, pipes, conduits, and roofing panels that need UV resilience and long-term color stability.

• FRP & Composite Panels: Gelcoat or resin coatings for exterior marine, architectural, or landscaping structures.

• Marine & Protective Coatings: Topcoats and priming systems for boats, decks, and outdoor equipment.

• Infrastructure & Building Components: Architectural facades, funnel systems, and utility housings exposed to harsh solar conditions.
  
  

Storage & Shelf Life

• Storage Conditions: Sealed packaging, stored between 10–30 °C, protected from moisture and direct sunlight.

• Shelf Life: Minimum 12 months under recommended storage conditions.
