Choosing your NSF 61 color

IFS Coatings has many different powder products and colors approved by NSF. The colors that we have approved are generic – e.g. “black”, “green”. “red” etc. Testing has been completed on these specific formulas and they have been approved. However there are many shades of 'green' and you may be looking for a very specific color. Our formulations have been approved to produce various shades of each color to within a certain tolerance. If the shade you need is not within this tolerance, then it may not be approved. For more information or help with your specific color requirements, talk to your local IFS rep or contact us.
