Coatings, Minerals and Paints.

Mare has been supplying the Coatings, Minerals and Paint industries now for almost 40 years and sits proudly as a key supplier and innovator in each field.

The Coatings, Minerals and Paint industries are all highly specialised industries, yet share similarities in that dispersion, binding and thickening are key elements in the manufacturing of all three.

Located at Mare’s headquarters and largest production facility in Ossona near Milan, Italy, Mare produces a wide range of Maredis Polyacrylates. Over 50,000 tonnes of Polyacrylates are produced each year, many of which go into the Coatings, Minerals and Paint industries.

The Maredis range of Polyacrylates provides excellent dispersant qualities ensuring consistent and high quality manufacturing results.

In Niklasdorf, Austria, Mare remains one of the few remaining producers of CMC (Carboxymethylcellulose) in Europe. CMC is one of the most commonly used thickeners and binding agents used in the industry today. Mare’s range of Niklacell CMC’s includes both technical and purified grades and remains one of the most effective binding agents used in the industry today.

Dry Strength

More information

Increasing the dry strength qualities of the paper and board has been a key driver of the paper market for decades. Increased dry strength enables the producer to enter new markets or to reduce the content of its more expensive cellulose fibre components.

The complexities of the papermaking process mean that increasing dry strength can be achieved in many ways. It is vital that when selecting a dry strength programme, the technology and indeed the supplier is selected on its merits and that the programme is the most suitable or technically correct for the application.  

In order to meet this requirement, Mare offers the widest range of products on the market today. Mare is able to supply all the available options for dry strength enhancement, ensuring complete independence in its approach.
