Four black grades of natural magnetite

FerroSpire Black is a liquid, water-based black pigment of natural magnetite for through-colouring concrete, including roof tiles and paving stones. The range has four grades: IS-3101 is slightly coarser than the others, IS-3102 is our standard black grade, IS-3301 is extra dark black with a slight blue undertone (indicative), and IS-3302 is deep black with carbon black. Black iron oxide is generally used for grey, anthracite and black concrete products, and it is also part of blended brown shades. As a liquid pigment it is dosed directly into the mix. We are happy to test FerroSpire Black with the PCE product you use. A test cast is recommended before production, and you can request a quote and a sample for all four grades.
