Blending and Mixing:

Should you require advice on toll manufacturing or require an introduction to UK-based paint manufacturers, this is something we can facilitate.  For smaller quantities, our businesses are capable of blending colour to a Delta E tolerance of 0,5 using FMCII software.

Advice on REACH:

The EU legislation on REACH (Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals) which came into effect in June 2007 represents the most fundamental change in the way chemicals are controlled in Europe.  It can be a minefield for the unwary and we can guide and advise you through the whole process.
