About TMC
TMC Technology & Marketing Consulting GmbH, headquartered in Duisburg, was founded in 2017 on the basis of more than 30 years of industry experience in the paints, coatings, printing ink and adhesives industry. The company provides consulting services worldwide to chemical production manufacturers and focuses on the systematic analytical examination of raw material and formulation data. In its consulting work, formulation structures are analyzed and converted into modular concepts; consolidation steps for raw materials reveal areas of overlap and lead to the logical development of semi-finished products. In the application technology laboratory in Duisburg, raw materials and formulations are tested – from film properties to liquid properties – and pilot batches are produced in the technical center using in-line dispersers, agitator bead mills and high-performance agitator bead mills. TMC develops and produces modules and semi-finished products based on jointly developed formulas, for example multifunctional modules on an epoxy and polyacrylate basis, and via an independent network brokers contract manufacturers and system suppliers. Customers include, among others, Kansai Helios Coatings, ICHEMAD-Profarb and Estalia Performance Coatings.
