Among them, you'll find not only highly lightfast and opaque chrome yellows but also colours like poppy red, cobalt turquoise, agate brown, Schweinfurt green, neutral black, gold, silver and bronze.

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.
