A revolution in product innovation
With its own in-house expertise, Metaflake develops solutions tailored to meet industries evolving needs.
Innovative solutions
Metaflake Ltd was established in 1996 with the vision of producing aluminium pigments using an entirely new, revolutionary and environmentally friendly technology. The traditional process for aluminium pigment production involves milling with large quantities of harmful hydrocarbon solvents and had hardly changed in nearly 100 years. Metaflake rejected this wasteful approach as being too polluting and capital intensive while developing their own innovative alternative.
