GCIR Solvents – High-Quality Industrial Cleaning and Thinning Solutions
Gulf Chemicals & Industrial Oils Co. ranks among the largest manufacturers of alkyd resins, transformer oils, and specialty solvents in the GCC. The company develops and supplies premium Solvents including White Spirit, Odourless White Spirit, Odourless Kerosene, and aromatic grades. These products serve a wide range of industries such as paints, coatings, degreasers, timber treatment, and automotive care.
Built for Performance and Versatility
Our Solvents product line includes low aromatic and de‑aromatized White Spirit blends tailored for controlled evaporation and effective cleaning. We offer customizable distillation and evaporation ranges to adapt to specific project needs. Thanks to fine-tuned aromatic content, our solvents balance strong solvency with appropriate odor levels—ideal for both industrial formulators and end users.
White Spirit grades vary from general-purpose to low-odor and high-flash formulations. High‑aromatic blends deliver superior solvency, while low‑aromatic or de‑aromatized versions reduce fumes—suitable for sensitive environments. Other options include high‑flash variants with improved safety profiles.
Applications That Matter
These Solvents find crucial roles across diverse markets:
-
Paints & Coatings: ideal as thinners and cleaners to provide smooth flow and finish.
-
Cleaning & Degreasing: effective on tools, machinery, metal surfaces, and automotive parts.
-

-
Industrial Formulations: integral to lacquers, resins, adhesives, and industrial cleaners.
We tailor solvent grades to match industry requirements, whether for rapid drying, extra cleaning power, or reduced volatility.
