The Emerald Hilton Davis division is one of the most versatile color manufacturers in the world. A leading manufacturer of food, drug, and cosmetic colorants, pigments, dyes, dry colors, and dispersions.
Its products are used globally in various food and beverage, coatings, graphic arts, plastics, paper, textile, personal care, home care, pharmaceutical and industrial applications.
In the fall of 2008, three of our Divisions - Carolina, Foam Control, and Hilton Davis - have joined together to form our Specialties Group to offer performance additives for food and industrial applications. We have recently expanded our product offerings for coatings and inks with new product development and the acquisition of Wolstenholme, a premier manufacturer of carbon black dispersions.
