About us
Since 1945, A. Haussmann GmbH has developed and produced specialty paints, laminating compounds, fire protection products and other products for the event industry. The product range includes artist and theatre paints, truss paints, film and leather paints, luminous and projection paints, rust-effect systems, casting compounds, foams, filler compounds, adhesives, pigments as well as gilding and silvering products. A focus is placed on safety products for fire protection, including flame-retardant primers for wood and textiles, non-flammable filler compounds and fire-resistant textile and leather protection. New products are developed in close cooperation with practitioners; existing products are improved in terms of environmental friendliness and renewable raw materials are used. Special shades are produced from 25 litres based on a colour sample. Customers include theatres, stage painters and sculptors, costume makers, prop and trade fair builders, film and television outfitters, architects and artists. Since 2003, the company has been based with production, warehouse and office in Siek in Schleswig-Holstein on the outskirts of Hamburg.
