New, sustainable color solutions

Sustainability is in Heubach’s DNA. Our sustainable color solutions make the world a brighter place and fulfil the highest requirements in terms of quality and toxicity. Our modern production sites and processes help to save natural resources and many of our products support sustainable product design. Ecological criteria also play an increasingly important role in the further development of existing products and the conceptual design of new ones.

With this focus on advanced sustainable color technology, at ECS 2023, discover the new water- and biocide-free pigment preparations. This is a revolutionary and sustainable solution for interior decorative paints.
