Pigment Guide

Choosing the Right Pigment

A quick primer for concrete product manufacturers:

  • ●
    Reds (110/120/130 series)Light→dark reds; the workhorse for pavers. High heat & UV stability.
  • ●
    Yellows (313/318 series)Bright, clean tones; blend with red for oranges and browns.
  • ●
    Blacks (330/740 series)Jet blacks and grey shading at low dosing.
  • ●
    Blues & GreensCompound pigments for decorative and landscaping products.

Tip: always add pigment after water wets the aggregate, and mix a fixed time — colour uniformity is 50% dosing, 50% mixing discipline.
