An Italian history

Novacolor was established in 1982 in Forlì, one of the most productive areas of Italy. In 2009 Novacolor became part of the San Marco Group, a leading Italian manufacturer in the production of paints and varnishes for the professional building industry, with 8 manufacturing plants worldwide. Both companies benefit from the new set up, in terms of know-how and credibility worldwide, while Novacolor becomes internationally known as a reference point for high-end architectural coatings and interior paint effects.

Through the years, thanks to the intuition and creativity of the management, and to the careful selection of high quality raw materials, Novacolor expanded, thus offering architects and designers worldwide a complete assortment of textured effects and polished plasters, for interiors and exteriors, as well as wall coatings for modern or historical town settings.

Novacolor is also specialized in the production of seamless systems for walls and floors indoor and outdoor, and of high quality paints available as matt, glossy and satin.

Novacolor Green Approach: Design and Wellbeing

Novacolor is extremely sensitive towards environmental issues. As a result, the company has made significant progress in recent years by reducing the use of toxic substances and solvents in its products. Novacolor manufactures and distributes innovative materials worldwide, with a very low release of VOC (Volatile Organic Compound). In addition, the company is strategically committed to the analysis of the LCA (Life Cycle Assessment) of all the products. LCA studies the whole life cycle of a product and its environmental impact.

Novacolor meets the challenges of ecology and sustainability with products such as Africa, CalceCruda, Puro and Patina Minerale, that sensitively reduce the formaldehyde in the surrounding air. Novacolor offers its customers more sustainable paints while maintaining the same quality standards as ever. This is possible thanks to the Mass Balance approach, that decreses the emissions of CO2 into the air with a drastic reduction of fossil resources, in favor of renewable resources coming in particular from the exploitation of biomass.

It is therefore a real revolution in the world of paints that will change not only the habits of the consumers, but also the entire market by offering everyone an extra chance to contribute in a real and tangible way to the protection of the world and the welfare of its inhabitants. Novacolor decorative textures make the environment unique and elegant while contemporarily improving our life standards.
