CHRYSO Color P is a range of powdered pigments made from synthetic metal oxides, developed for colouring cement- and lime-based construction materials. Suitable for architectural concrete, ready-mixed concrete, and precast elements, the pigments are incorporated directly into the material to produce an integral colour finish.

The pigments are insoluble in water, alkalis, and diluted acids, and offer resistance to ultraviolet radiation and weathering. These properties support colour stability and the long-term appearance of exposed concrete surfaces, contributing to the durability of the architectural finish. The range complies with category A and/or B requirements of NF EN 12878, depending on the formulation.
