ThermoKrom®, industrial range of reversible and irreversible thermochromes

Thermochromic solutions
for your critical industrial environments

ThermoKrom® is a range of thermochromic products designed by OliKrom to change color when a defined temperature threshold is crossed. Our innovations are available in paint or color-change ink.

Available in reversible (repeatable effect with each thermal cycle) or irreversible (permanent change) versions, ThermoKrom® can be used to create interactive products or visual security systems.

Find out more about our ThermoKrom® range and how it can be used in industrial applications.

ThermoKrom®, the complete thermochromic solution for your industrial applications

kappla-thermochromes

The ThermoKrom® range meets strategic challenges in industrial environments with thermal hazards. Coatings can be used to visually detect abnormal heating, validate a sterilization cycle, or identify a zone that has reached a critical threshold.

Developed by OliKrom, the ThermoKrom® range combines technical performance with flexibility of use. Each solution has been tailor-made, with a trigger threshold adjusted to your specific requirements. Reliable technology, designed to enhance the safety, traceability and intelligence of your products or processes.

 

Application types tailored to your needs

At OliKrom, each ThermoKrom® product formulation is developed to meet your specific industrial constraints: temperature threshold, reversibility, type of material, but also the type of application... Our R&D laboratory custom-designs the thermochromic solution best suited to your needs.

A complete range of reversible and irreversible thermochromes

We offer a wide range of reversible and irreversible thermochromic products.

In addition to standard solutions, OliKrom also designs customized formulations, entirely developed alongside you, to meet specific requirements: chemical compatibility, UV resistance, thermal resistance, viscosity, application medium, application method, etc. Our R&D team is with you every step of the way to define the solution best suited to your application, with a view to seamless and secure industrial integration.

We develop a wide range of colors on request, as well as customizable transition thresholds to suit your requirements.

Reversible thermochromes

We offer a wide range of reversible thermochromic products from colored to colorless: black, red, blue, green and yellow. These reversible solutions can be formulated as color changes to colorless, or color to color for more complex or discreet effects.

We also offer a range of reversible colorless to colored thermochromes, but our technology is fully customizable to suit your needs. If you require a specific shade, please contact us to discuss your project.

Irreversible thermochromes

The irreversible thermochromic pigments in the ThermoKrom® range are designed to change color permanently when a predefined temperature threshold is crossed. We offer a range of black, red and blue thermochromes available at a transition temperature of 60°c.

We can supply our irreversible thermochromes in many other colors, and adjust transition temperatures to suit your needs, even at high thresholds of up to 300°C, for use in extreme environments.
