Features
EKAN® COLOR W is an iron oxide pigment used for the integral coloring of concrete. It is used to give bulk concrete and concrete surfaces a white color. Due to its powder form, it should be added to the concrete during the production phase.
EKAN® COLOR W does not have a negative impact on concrete strength. It can be applied before the pumping phase in any weather condition, as it does not adversely affect the setting time of the concrete.
The special formula of EKAN® COLOR W is non-toxic, making it suitable for all types of concrete production.
