From fencing and cladding to cabinetry and furniture, timber remains a material of choice for builders, designers, and homeowners alike. But whether indoors or out, wood needs protection alongside colour that enhances its natural grain, elevates its appearance, and supports long-lasting performance.
At DVM Pigments & Additives, we’ve developed a range of aqueous pigment dispersions specifically for use in wood coating systems. Engineered for water-based stains, lacquers, paints, and clear finishes, our dispersions combine aesthetic appeal with durability, offering a sustainable, easy-to-use solution for both industrial and decorative applications.
Colour that Performs
DVM’s aqueous dispersions are highly stable, easily incorporated, and resistant to settling, helping coating producers reduce downtime and deliver consistent shades, batch after batch. Whether you’re developing a translucent stain to accentuate wood grain or a solid finish to mask imperfections, our dispersions offer:
- Excellent colour strength and depth
- High transparency or opacity, as needed
- Uniform dispersion across wood surfaces
- Strong UV resistance and lightfastness
Our pigment dispersions are compatible with a wide variety of wood substrates and coating systems, making them ideal for:
- Exterior stains and preservatives
- Interior wood paints and finishes
- Joinery, cabinetry, and millwork coatings
- Decking and fencing products
A Focus on Sustainability
DVM’s dispersions are water-based and VOC-compliant, supporting the growing demand for eco-friendly wood coatings across residential, commercial, and export markets. Our formulations avoid harsh solvents, reduce odour, and are safer for both users and the environment.
Our innovative colour solutions perform well on softwoods, hardwoods, MDF, plywood, and other engineered boards, providing intense penetration, vibrant colour, and reliable adhesion, even on porous or uneven surfaces. These products include:
