Shamrock pioneered the development of PTFE and wax additives in the 1970s, first for inks and coatings, and later for a wide range of applications including lubricants, personal care products, polymer additives, and many more. Known for producing an extensive line of problem-solvers, our additives include powders, compounds and dispersions that enhance inks and coatings by controlling slip, rub/abrasion resistance, texture, water pick-up and bleed. Shamrock has emerged as a trusted partner for the ink and coatings formulator because the company combines industry experts with advanced technology, custom production equipment, and state-of-the-art application and R&D laboratories.
