TINOX® TiO₂ Grades Showcased at Booth #Z4E171
Dubai and the broader UAE market presents distinct formulation requirements: extreme UV intensity, high ambient temperatures, rapid luxury construction growth and a major marine and offshore industry. At Booth #Z4E171, our team presented four TINOX® grades matched specifically to these demanding conditions:
- TINOX® R-2290 — Premium Architectural & Exterior Coatings
High-purity chloride-process rutile with outstanding UV absorption and light scattering efficiency. The UAE’s year-round extreme solar radiation makes UV stability the number one specification for exterior architectural coatings. R-2290 delivers superior chalking resistance and long-term colour retention on high-end residential and commercial façade systems — essential for Dubai’s luxury construction sector. - TINOX® CR-1220 — Marine & Protective Industrial Coatings
Specialty chloride-process rutile engineered for high-durability protective coating systems. The UAE hosts some of the world’s busiest ports and a major offshore energy sector — CR-1220 meets the stringent hiding power, corrosion resistance and UV durability requirements of marine topcoats, offshore structure coatings and heavy-duty industrial protective systems operating in salt-air environments. - TINOX® R-2160 — Industrial & Anti-Corrosion Coatings
Robust rutile grade optimised for industrial maintenance and anti-corrosion coating formulations. With Dubai’s rapid infrastructure expansion — bridges, pipelines, industrial facilities and petrochemical plants — demand for high-performance industrial protective coatings is growing consistently. R-2160 provides excellent hiding power and chemical resistance in solvent-borne and waterborne protective systems. - TINOX® R-2240 — Decorative & General Architectural Coatings
Versatile rutile grade with strong opacity and good processability across waterborne and solvent-borne decorative systems. R-2240 serves the broader MENA construction market — supplying the high volume of interior and exterior decorative paints required by the region’s sustained residential and commercial building activity at a competitive price point.
