One Dispenser.
Two Worlds.
Same dispenser. Same canisters.
Paints and dry substrates,
tinted on demand.

That has never existed before.
Liquid tinting exists to manage water. The pumps, the seals, the biocides — none of it delivers color.
All of it manages the carrier.
For cementitious substrates the problem is structural. Water activates the hydraulic reaction and cannot be added until application. Liquid colorants are incompatible with cement, lime, tadelakt, grout, and plaster at point of sale — so no tinting system has ever existed for them.
The industry answer has been factory-premixed color: a limited palette, persistent specking, no flexibility.
SolidFlow® changes the premise entirely.
Dry colorant is dispensed directly into the cement base — no mixing required. The user adds water at the point of use, and color develops uniformly.
Not a colorant.
A System.
The Colorant
Dust-free, free-flowing, solvent-free. No biocides. No VOCs. No spillage. No transport weight. Drop-in compatible with any water-based system. Gravimetrically metered — not approximated volumetrically.
The Canister
NFC-equipped. Lot-specific bulk density embedded at filling, read at dispense. No recalibration. No operator error. The canister knows what it contains.
The Dispenser
Fewer moving parts than any liquid equivalent. Gravimetric precision. No dedicated infrastructure. Designed for retail and industrial environments alike.
The Software
Custom X-Rite ColorDesigner Plus integration for point-of-sale color selection, matching, and formulation. NCS, RAL, or custom palettes. For matching from an existing sample, the X-Rite Ci61 spectrophotometer feeds directly into the workflow. The formulation loop is closed.
The Result
A complete tinting ecosystem — full gamut, any substrate — where no solution has previously existed. The first time cementitious materials can be tinted at point of sale.
The Process
Manufactured using 100% electrical power, predominantly from renewable sources. No gas. No fossil fuels. No freezedrying. Designed from the ground up to scale. The same unit operation at pilot and at industrial volume
A century of pigment technology.
Five years to change it.
SolidFlow® was born from a simple and uncomfortable observation: the coatings industry had been optimizing a legacy format for decades. Liquid colorants existed not because they were the best solution — but because no one had made pigments flowable enough to replace them.
SIOF S.p.A. — founded in 1923 — backed that observation with five years of dedicated R&D and the boldness to invest in a genuinely new manufacturing process. The scientific and engineering work was carried out by Regis Engineering, bringing nearly thirty years of international expertise in particle technology and pigment science to bear on a problem the industry had not solved.
The result is a manufacturing process protected by multiple patents, running on 100% electrical power, designed from the ground up to scale.
The team behind SolidFlow® spans pigment chemistry, process engineering, color science, and dispensing technology.
