Venator launches TMP- and TME-free titanium dioxide
Last update on Aug 4, 2025
Venator, a supplier of specialty chemicals and ingredients, has introduced TMP- and TME- free TIOXIDE® TR85, part of a series of reformulated titanium dioxide (TiO2) pigments. This range of innovative products is designed to stay ahead of changing regulations, while maintaining the same high performance that customers expect from Venator products.
Offers excellent weathering performance
The TIOXIDE® TR85 pigment has successfully undergone numerous commercial scale trials, with some customers having already successfully switched to the TMP- free version and is now fully launched in the market. This product is ideal for both interior and exterior tint bases and water-based coatings and boasts excellent weathering performance.
This TIOXIDE® TR85 pigment is Venator’s second in a new series of TMP- and TME- free pigments, following the release of TIOXIDE® TR81 pigment earlier this year.
Nicolas Joly, Venator’s executive vice president of Commercial, said, “Behind the scenes, our Venator technical experts have been working tirelessly on transitioning our entire coatings portfolio. This is the second in a series of new products, more of which will be released in the coming months.”
