The art of raw material selection
In the development of NORMA Professional special attention was given to the use of natural and renewable resources. High-quality, pure vegetable oil blends ensure excellent adhesion, optimal pigment absorption and minimise the tendency to yellow. The use of top-quality pigments both traditional and modern, in the highest concentration guarantees exceptional opacity, luminosity and brilliance throughout the palette. The colours are carefully ground on three-roll mills and mature for three months before filling to ensure the optimal development of raw materials in pure oil paint.
Highest quality standards for perfect results
All colours are characterised by their balanced, creamy-buttery consistency ensuring excellent painting properties and perfect brushwork. An optimised formula also ensures a shortened and harmonious drying time for all colours, resulting in brilliant and durable surfaces.
NORMA Professional can be easily mixed and combined with all Schmincke oil colours and oil mediums.
