Performance Pigments

Black Olive™, Firemist® , Glacier®, Lumina®, Lumina Royal, and Paliocrom®
​Whether the aircraft coatings customer is a global airline, a regional brand, a business fleet or an individual small aircraft, BASF effect pigments can add distinction to the desired designs. From dramatic color effects, enhanced cover, high reflectivity and unique finishes, brand differentiation is easy with BASF Effect Pigments. Pearlescent whites, charcoal and unique metallics such as pewter add sparkle and reflectivity. Pigments that display color travel (light angle dependent color) are all available to the creative design engineer.
Adding style at 30,000 ft to the exterior
​Brand differentiation is a need for today’s coatings customers, who rely on creating lasting recognition in their consumers mind. Effect pigments can be used in aerospace coatings to help set products apart and create that lasting impression. Re-branding, accent striping, lettering, logos or special edition liveries are all prime areas that would benefit from special effects.
