CalFill

CalFill is a versatile calcium carbonate filler designed for consistent performance in construction materials, rubber, plastics, PVC, tiles, adhesives, paints, putties, sealants, paper and board applications. Its controlled particle size between 100 and 400 mesh ensures excellent dispersion, reliable bulk density and uniform workability. CalFill improves dimensional stability and process efficiency across a broad range of industrial uses.

Benefits

CalFill provides multiple functional advantages that enhance product performance and processing efficiency.

  • Paints, coatings and putties: improves bulk and smooth application
  • Adhesives and sealants: supports rheology and reduces shrinkage
  • Construction fillers: adds stability to mortars and grouts
  • Rubber and plastics: increases filler loading efficiency
  • Paper, pulp and cardboard: provides bulk and printability enhancement
  • Ceramics and tiles: improves body strength and smooth finish

These benefits make CalFill a reliable filler solution that supports product quality, process efficiency and performance consistency across industries.

Uses

CalFill is suitable for a broad spectrum of industrial applications where consistent filler performance is critical. In paints and coatings it enhances texture, spreadability and surface coverage. In adhesives and sealants it stabilises formulations and reduces shrinkage.

  • Construction materials including mortars, grouts and fillers
  • Adhesives, sealants and putties for consistent rheology
  • Paints, coatings and related surface finishing products
  • Rubber and plastic products requiring controlled filler content
  • Paper, pulp and cardboard for bulk and printability enhancement
  • Ceramic, tile and related applications for smooth finish and strength

These uses demonstrate CalFill’s versatility as a functional filler across multiple industrial sectors, improving efficiency and product quality.

Production

CalFill is manufactured to strict quality standards to ensure chemical purity, particle size consistency and reliable performance. The product contains at least 95 percent calcium carbonate, with particle size distributions tailored to specific application needs. D50 ranges from approximately 30 to 100 micrometres depending on grade, with top cut between 150 and 38 micrometres and a bottom cut around 20 micrometres to limit fines.
