In the coatings industry, controlling foam is essential to maintaining quality, efficiency, and performance. Whether in water-based paints, industrial coatings, or ink systems, foam can disrupt manufacturing and compromise film appearance. Entrapped air during mixing and application can result in surface defects such as craters, pinholes, and poor gloss — making a reliable defoamer an indispensable component of modern formulations.
Rickman defoamers are engineered to meet the specific needs of coating manufacturers. Our product line offers excellent foam knockdown, long-term stability, and compatibility with various binder systems including acrylics, polyurethanes, and epoxies. They are suitable for use in architectural paints, industrial finishes, and pigment dispersions, where both aesthetics and durability are critical.
What sets Rickman apart is not just our product performance, but our service approach. We collaborate with clients to evaluate their formulations, conduct lab simulations, and offer tailored solutions that improve efficiency and minimize formulation risk. From technical consultation to application support, Rickman is a trusted partner in helping you achieve a smoother, defect-free finish every time.
