Cod. 90041 Art and Design Art exhibition “Atelier Home Decor”, in collaboration with the Academy of Fine Arts of Brera (Milan) - 2011 “When we started developing Fleur, our aim was to create a paint easily usable on any material, with a good coverage and brushability. As things progressed in the search for these characteristics we found an old recipe that implied the use of a high amount of very fine pigments and a mix of minerals (especially silicates) chosen for their feature to refract light and give the painted surface a vibrant mattness. The result was extraordinary. The more and more industrialized production that had characterized the paint industry in the past few decades had us focus on mere technicality, almost forgetting the value of a beautiful finish. When I talk to our clients and I feel their enthusiasm for this product I recognize the same passion that we put in its development and I think this is the greatest satisfaction.” “I bought Fleur for the first time when a colleague recommended me to try it. A customer had grown tired of an old dresser and wanted to renovate it, so I was looking for a paint with a good coverage, for large surfaces. Since that day I have used Fleur for almost any work. I like it because it’s really versatile and I can use it on any material: I painted furniture, lamps, canvases and recently my bike as well.” “I like Fleur because it has an up-to-date color range and it’s never ordinary. In the past I used other paint lines but I could hardly find the colors I had in mind and I often ended up adapting my initial idea to the available materials. In Fleur color range you can find colors matching inspirations from the world of fashion and design. I often realize that the creative process gets reversed and the colors themselves stimulate my imagination. Sometimes I find myself with a jar in my hand wondering: what can I do with this color?” Fleur Contest “Art and Design” - 2015 “How many color brands can be found in a fine art store? Dozens. There are brands that win the customer’s trust by virtue of the company’s long tradition; others, which have recently built their reputation thanks to some special feature. Some brands are prefered to others because of their professional image, in other cases it is the price that determines the customer’s choice. Fleur goes beyond the traditional approaches of marketing: the artist loves it because it contains ingredients which have been carefully selected. It gets appreciation from anyone who paints bigger surfaces because of its ease of use. And everybody likes it in the end for its great aesthetic qualities and refined color range. I believe that those who buy Fleur, buy it primarily because they feel attracted by the beauty of the colors. Then they just keep on buying it because of the pleasure to use a product of genuine quality.” “Have you noticed that anything painted with Fleur turns into something beautiful? I think the key is the fact it contains minerals, which makes it different from traditional acrylic colors. The minerals contained in the product capture the light and they diffuse it on the surface before refracting it. The extraordinary mattness, that the painted object gets gives it a new dimensionality where light and shadow are emphasised and the color reaches a unique vibrancy and incredible depth.” MINERAL CONTENT The recipe of Fleur comes from a long experience in restoration and decoration. Its excellent coverage and versatility of use on any material has made of Fleur the first choice of artists, professional decorators and designers. But maybe it is the extraordinarily matt finish and the vibrancy of its colors what makes Fleur unique. We are often asked to compare the mattness of Fleur with other paints. Any Fleur color has maximum a 2% sheen - a standard in itself very difficult to get to - but what’s relevant is the fact it is impossible to get such a matt finish with an acrylic paint not affecting the vibrancy of colors. The difference lies in the minerals contained in Fleur. In fact, we use a selection of silicates and other fine minerals, which refract and diffuse light on the painted surface. If you look at an object painted with Fleur, you don’t see a flat, “synthetic” mattness but rather diffused light. You have the visual sensation of sinking into color, and the final effect is very natural. When you catch this essential aesthetic difference, it’s hard to go back to other colors. PIGMENTS The chromatic vibrancy of Fleur colors is achieved using high amounts of extremely fine pigments with superior quality. These pigments give to the colors an extraordinary depth. You get the impression the object itself is made of color.

This has focused our attention on waste and has led to new trends, both in fashion and design, such as the “upcycling”, or the transformation of disused objects and waste materials into unique and original artworks. It is a new form of functional art that finds application in everyday life. The new perspective given by “upcycling” - which is basically the opposite of “recycling” - has given birth to a new “mantra” among artists and designers: RECYCLING, REINVENTING, REUSING. In harmony and in support of a more sustainable attitude, we wanted to meet the demand of a paint suitable on various materials. Moreover, we have adopted production methods which would make it as environmentally friendly as possible. Hence the choice of a packaging made of glass and cardboard which is 100% recyclable and the reduction of VOC emissions to values much lower than the legal minimum set by the institutions. First Happening “Creative Furniture”, dedicated to upcycling - 2014 Flower Power UPCYCLING: The term “upcycling” was coined to express an alternative to “recycling”, Bamboo which often indicates the “downcycling” of objects made of plastic, wood, paper, which are further processed in order to obtain new raw materials, usually of lower quality. Upcycling indicates instead the transformation of old materials and disused objects into new objects of higher value, both from a qualitative, economic and environmental point of view. The Green Queen COMPANY In 1946 Luigi and Adele Dallamano founded in Brescia the company Colorificio Centrale S.p.A. specialized on production and sale of paints for decoration and restoration. Since from the very beginning the company has given great value to research and innovation and committed to the development of high quality products. Today it is still a family business managed by the third generation which has consolidated the company’s market position and has achieved international recognition thanks to the attention paid to the changes in the world of color and decoration.
