Shadeacrete(R) - powder pigments for cementitious applications.
The Shadeacrete(R) Range of pigments are blended grades manufactured in the UKand available in a wide range of packaging types and weights. They are manufactured specifically to enhance the appearance of cement and lime based products.

Please read this important information before viewing the Shadecards:
Due to the limitations of computer colour reproduction, the shade cards available on this website must not be relied upon for colour choice. Instead, for reliable reproductions of the colours that can be achieved in cement using Shadeacrete(R) pigments, please ask for an original copy to be sent to you in the post. Also available are individual shade cards showing the colours at differing dosages. A sample of the actual pigment can be supplied to enable you to carry out your own trials in your raw materials.
To request a shade card or a sample, complete the form on our Contact Us page.
