OliKrom Industry
The advent of smart materials to detect color
The OliKrom Industry division is an expert in intelligent materials whose color or luminescence properties are sensitive to their industrial environment.
Based on colors detection, we develop customized intelligent solutions to detect failures, improve the reliability of industrial equipment and the safety of operators.
The use of intelligent coatings to manage industrial risks and to detect a colors response is a reality that is fully in line with the industry of the future.
15 years of expertise in color intelligence and industrial innovation
Our fields of intervention, safety and color detection
Industrial safety
By creating intelligent coatings (colors & luminescence properties), we contribute to guaranteeing the safety and reliability of the industrial tool: impact or leak detection, thermal mapping, improved visibility...
Predictive maintenance
By modulating the optical properties (color and/or luminescence response) of a paint & ink, we develop intelligent solutions to detect and anticipate future failures on an equipment, a product risk...
Make a production reliable
The expertise of our teams allows us to quickly take over the production of smart materials, to secure your deadlines and to guarantee the reliability of the quality and origin of the materials.
Our expertise of color intelligence
Create smart coatings of tomorrow, make the color speak
From the analysis of the industrial risk and the equipment to be secured, our mastery of colors properties allows us to adapt the optical response of materials to the right wavelength and optimize the color detection.
We create systems that optical properties are responsive to the : temperature, light (photochromes and luminescents), pressure, the presence of a solvent or a gas.
We adapt the detection of color response (and/or luminescence: fluorescence, phosphorescence) to the target: human eye, the eye of a robot, the animal eye... Each target imposes to our teams an adjustment of the chemistry to induce an optimal color change detection.
Throughout the project, our approach is global: we are with you from start to finish, from the proof of concept to the manufacturing of the final smart product in our factory.
Our culture of confidentiality
Throughout the development process of an industrial request or an innovative project, we guarantee the utmost discretion with regard to the sensitivity of the information communicated.
The culture of confidentiality is an integral part of the OliKrom approach, a true guarantee of the company's development and durability.
Recognized know-how in industrial innovation management and color intelligence
Our innovation activities and our mastery of color intelligence are internationally recognized. As an example, as early as 2018 we were rewarded in the Grands Prix de l'Industrie du Futur organized by La Tribune by winning the "Industrial Nugget" award.
These types of equipment based on color detection for protection or visualization of a risk are of interest to companies in all sectors in France and abroad: petrochemical, nuclear, energy, environment...
Today, there are already many examples of industrial development of smart materials that can detect color and luminescence properties.
For every application, there is a smart solution to develop. Our teams like to take on challenges and create adaptive optical response materials to increase industrial safety.
All our products (pigment, ink and paint) are developed and manufactured in our factory in Pessac (France).
Photoluminescent signage
Photoluminescent paint that charges during the day and emits light at night for 10 hours without any electrical source. Ideal for securing night-time movements on an industrial site: securing pathways, dangerous areas, evacuation routes, stairways, etc.
