Ajanta Colours offers a comprehensive range of high-quality Aluminium Lake colours, also known as lake pigments, which are produced by the absorption of water-soluble dye onto a hydrated aluminium substrate. This makes the colour insoluble in water and more stable than water-soluble colours. Lakes generate brighter and more vivid colours and are best suited for products containing oils and fats or products that lack sufficient moisture to dissolve colours. Being pigments, their colouring is attained through the dispersion of tiny colour particles. The effectiveness of a colour is directly proportional to the fine nature of colour particles.
Our lake colours are not only beautiful but also give true and clear shades of the colours. We are committed to delivering high colour value through precise control over particle size and consistency. This means you can achieve the same results with smaller quantities of Ajanta Colours compared to larger amounts of other well-known brands. This efficiency can lead to significant cost savings for products.
