Falu Rödfärg

Falu Rödfärg Paint is a water-based exterior wood paint made by Stora Kopparbergs Bergslags AB (now Stora Enso) in Sweden. What makes Falu Rödfärg Paint so special is that it is made from the naturally-existing pigments in the earth which can only be found in the copper mine in Falun, Sweden. These pigments have a unique mineral composition which includes iron ochre, silicon dioxide, copper and zinc, all of which help preserve and protect wood and also produce the distinctive, natural colours of Falu Rödfärg Paint.

Only paint with a minimum of 18% pigment (15% at least for spray applications) sourced from the Falun mine in Sweden may be sold as Genuine Falu Rödfärg Paint.
