PERMASIL® Automotive Disperse Dye

This range of disperse dyes complies with the high standards required for the interiors of automobiles, recreational vehicles, public transit and commercial aircraft.

Our dyes are produced to the highest quality and minimum tolerance to meet the demands for outstanding light fastness and a high degree of reproducibility from lot-to-lot. Light fastness can sometimes be further enhanced with the application of a UV-absorber.
