Liquitex Bio-Based Heavy Acrylic marks a major step forward in sustainability. Unlike traditional acrylic mediums, which are made entirely from fossil fuel-derived ingredients, Liquitex reduced the use of these non-renewable substances by 50%, replacing them with renewable materials sourced from living or once-living organisms like corn, soy, sugarcane, and algae. These natural resources can be quickly replenished through farming or natural processes, offering a more eco-friendly alternative without compromising performance.
- Increases surface gloss, colour depth and transparency
- Lowers viscosity of heavier body paints, giving increased flow
- Extends colour further without affecting acrylic stability
- Maintains paint adhesion, durability and archival quality
- Transfers printed images or use as a glue when collaging with lightweight materials
