Refractory Ceramic Fibre (RCF) Pigments.

RCF pigments are our core product. We offer an unlimited colour pallet of shade and tonal variants, all of which can be set up ready for use to our client’s exact requirements.

RCF is predominately used in the domestic fire industry for the forming and creation of artificial shapes seen in living flame gas fires.

These shapes are often vacuum formed to maximize product detail and realism. United colours range of RCF pigments capture and enhance this detail ensuring the final product is as life like as possible.

It is commonly known that decoration of an RCF article is paramount to quality in its final aesthetic appearance. If the application of colour or combination of shade is not carefully considered, then the final piece can look dull and lifeless.
United Colour appreciates the complexity of such decorative frustrations and offers a service, often on site, to guide our clients from start to finish through the decoration process.
This service is often extremely valuable as we can advise on reducing colour waste, increasing product yield and reducing application times. Three key factors which our clients need to address to remain competitive in a very fast moving market place.
