Iron oxide pigments (IOP) are Fe₂O₃-based synthetic pigments used for coloring paint materials and in the manufacture of concrete articles, cement, trim and curbstones, colored lime-sand brick, gypsum and other construction materials.   

The global iron oxide production makes up around 550,000 tpy. The largest maker is Lanxess. Of all CIS countries iron oxide pigments are manufactured only in Russia, Ukraine and Uzbekistan. Their general output accounts for 15,000-20,000 tpy. This volume is not enough to satisfy the inner demand, and this makes the countries import the produce from outside.
