Norkem has entered into an agreement to market Brick Surface Colours manufactured by ATC Minerals Limited of Cheadle, Staffordshire.

Norkem has been a major supplier of Barium Carbonate and Manganese Suspensions to the heavy clay industry for many years. It has now been decided to expand activities into Surface Colours for the brick, paver and roof tile market in the UK, mainland Europe and Australia using its existing technical sales and marketing team.

ATC has strong expertise in the manufacture of colours and it is felt that combining this with Norkem’s position in the market will prove a winning combination.
