Novachem: innovative and sustainable raw materials for paints, coatings and inks.
Customised solutions for advanced industrial applications.
Founded in 1998, Novachem has worked for almost thirty years in the distribution and development of technical solutions for industry, supporting its customers in the creation of innovative formulations for high-value industrial applications. The company began by focusing on the distribution of raw materials for paints, including pigments, dyes and additives for the paints, inks, plastics, wood-processing and other specialist sectors.
Over time, changing markets, the introduction of new production technologies and growing attention to sustainability have led Novachem to progressively expand its portfolio of products and expertise. Through continuous research and collaboration with qualified partners, the company is now able to offer customised technical solutions that meet the performance, reliability and regulatory-compliance requirements of modern industrial processes.
The experience gained in the sector allows Novachem to support its customers not only in selecting the most suitable raw materials, but also in optimising formulations and implementing solutions capable of improving production efficiency and the quality of the finished product.
Advanced formulations for a constantly evolving sector
The paints, coatings and inks industry is undergoing a profound transformation. Formulators are being asked to develop increasingly high-performance products while reducing environmental impact and ensuring compliance with ever more stringent regulations.
In this context, the choice of raw materials for paints plays a strategic role in the development of high-performance formulations. Pigments, additives and functional components are no longer simply formulation ingredients, but determining factors in achieving specific characteristics such as durability, weather resistance, colour stability, adhesion, surface protection and the overall sustainability of the product.
Novachem continuously follows developments in the market and international regulations, selecting solutions capable of responding to the sector’s latest requirements. The objective is to support customers in developing formulations that combine high technical performance, production efficiency and environmental responsibility.
The growing demand for low-emission products, reduced-VOC formulations and safer solutions for operators and end users requires an increasingly specialist approach and an in-depth understanding of the interactions between raw materials, application processes and regulatory requirements.
Tailor-made solutions for advanced industrial applications
One of the defining features of Novachem’s approach is its ability to develop and propose tailored solutions. Each application sector presents specific challenges that require dedicated expertise and careful evaluation of technical parameters.
In paints and coatings, for example, the demand for more resistant and durable products requires the identification of specific ingredients capable of improving properties such as abrasion resistance, UV protection, barrier effect and aesthetic quality.
In the inks sector, meanwhile, characteristics such as colour brilliance, pigment dispersibility, compatibility with different substrates and stability during the printing process are fundamental.
The plastics sector also requires continuous technological development. Modern industrial applications demand uniform colouration, thermal stability, resistance to ageing and optimised production processes. Novachem is also active in this field with innovative projects capable of meeting these requirements.
Thanks to its experience, Novachem can support customers through the different stages of development, from component selection to defining the most effective solution for each specific application.
Quality, technical expertise and continuous improvement
In a highly competitive and regulated sector such as the chemical industry, quality is essential to ensuring reliability and operational continuity.
For this reason, Novachem adopted a quality-management system focused on the continuous improvement of its business processes as early as 2005. The company currently operates in accordance with the requirements of UNI EN ISO 9001:2015 certification, confirming its commitment to high organisational and management standards.
The certification is an important tool for ensuring traceability, process control, customer satisfaction and the effective management of operational activities. At the same time, it provides assurance for companies seeking a reliable and technically competent partner for the development of formulation solutions.
Looking to the future through responsible innovation
The future challenges facing the chemical sector will increasingly be linked to balancing performance, sustainability and regulatory compliance. New formulations, advanced materials and environmental requirements call for an approach based on continuous innovation, research and collaboration throughout the supply chain.
Novachem intends to continue its growth by investing in the development of solutions that help customers respond to the demands of a constantly evolving market. Attention to new technologies, the selection of innovative raw materials and specialist technical support are the pillars of this strategy.
