About WB Coatings
FEYCOLOR GmbH, headquartered in Regensburg, is a member of the Mipa Group and, as of 01.01.2023, continues a substantial part of the business operations of the long-established Warnecke & Böhm GmbH (founded 1882) under the WB Coatings brand. The company develops and produces industrial paints and special coatings: solvent-based 1K and 2K paints as well as water-based paints for metal, plastic, glass and wood. The product range includes texture paints (WB Warnex), low-solvent 2K-PUR texture paints with a mixing system (WB Colour Power Mix), chrome-effect coatings (WB Chrome Star), coloration of chrome and galvanized surfaces (WB Lasutec), diffusion paints for homogeneous luminous surfaces (WB Quantum Diffusion) and hygienic paint surfaces with germ reduction of over 99.9999% (WB Atimbe). More than 20,000 formulations enable colors according to RAL, RAL Design, Pantone, NCS and customer samples. Customers come from industries such as the metal and plastics industries, medical and laboratory technology, the music and event sector, architecture and the lighting industry; customers include Deutsche Telekom, Mercedes-Benz and Otto Hutt. As the inventor of hammer-tone paint, the company evolved from a German supplier into a globally active exporter with locations in Malaysia and China.

Materials & Paint Systems
Solvent-based 1K and 2K paints
Basis for industrial coating applications under extreme stress.
Water-based paints
Environmentally friendly water-based paints, e.g. hydro paints in the WB Atimbe hygiene program.
Low-solvent 2K-PUR texture paint
High resistance and easy application, available in 1-kg and 6-kg containers within 24 hours.
1K texture paint, air-drying, water-thinnable
Robust, repairable surface protection for loudspeakers, wood and MDF.
2K chrome-effect paint system
Primer, basecoat and clearcoat replace elaborate vapor deposition processes with simple paint application.
2K paint for chrome and galvanized surfaces
Creates anodized and dark-chrome effects on non-ferrous metal alloys.
Water-based 1K diffusion paint
Reduces LED hotspots and delivers homogeneous luminous surfaces on plastic and glass.
2K-PUR hygiene paint system with glass matrix
Germ reduction up to > 99.9999% (log 5.9) without nano-silver or free silver ions, effective for up to 10 years.
