​High-quality Hakuenka® products are chiefly used by the growing adhesives and sealants industry, although precipitated calcium carbonate in dry powder form is an accepted ingredient of printing inks and plastics as well.

Ultrafine precipitated calcium carbonate contains particles of defined size in the sub-100 nanometer range that lend adhesives and sealants anti-sagging properties, adhesion, and enhanced mechanical strength. But to be an effective ingredient, the product must be readily dispersible and highly consistent in quality, which is where Hakuenka® products excel. That excellence is further backed by Shiraishi-Omya’s extensive applications engineering support to customers.
