About Bruchsaler Farbenfabrik
Bruchsaler Farbenfabrik GmbH & Co. KG is a manufacturer of inorganic pigments and dry pigment blends with its own production, based in Bruchsal since 1896. The product range comprises three lines: BRUFASOL AL comprises bismuth vanadate yellow pigments (Pigment Yellow 184) as a lead-free alternative to chrome yellow pigments, with high opacity, brilliance and weather resistance. BRUFATEC are inorganic-organic hybrid pigments in orange and red, produced in a special mixing process with high homogeneity, serving as a substitute for molybdate orange, molybdate red as well as cadmium orange and cadmium red pigments. Under the BRUFABLEND line, blended pigments are offered according to RAL, NCS, British Standard, Pantone or customer specification, including substitutes for chrome yellow, molybdate orange and molybdate red types. The pigments are used worldwide in paints and coatings. The quality management system is certified to EN ISO 9001:2015.
