Natural Mineral Pigments Vs. Synthetic Paint Colors

There is a big difference between the paint colors using natural mineral pigments, and most other synthetic colors on the market.

The industrial age has changed the way we make paint. In an effort to drive down costs for mass production, manufacturers add chemical pigments and dyes to create cheaper, more artificial colorants.

American Paint Company continues to make paint the way it’s been made for centuries; using clay, and mixing in only all natural mineral pigments. The natural minerals, although more costly, are mixed by hand with the clay, resulting in the truest and richest colors.
