Natural pigments

This range contains natural mineral pigments (ochres and earths) extracted from quarries, which undergo only a process of grinding, calcination and blending. As for our ochres, Société des Ocres de France is today the last independent producer in Europe, thanks to its quarry located in Gargas and its factory in Apt (Vaucluse). Natural pigments have excellent lightfastness, good colouring power, good covering power and good resistance to chalking. However, their colours are less vivid than those of synthetic pigments.
