Top essentials in fine art

For more than 100 years now Royal Talens has been supplying state-of-art artists’ material. In 1899 Marten Talens founded the "Dutch Factory for Paints, Lacquers and Inks" in the Dutch city of Apeldoorn. Commercial success and Talens’ innovative strength as well as the market growth led to an ever increasing production of Rembrandts’ oil colours in new products. In 1912 the factory expanded for the first time. Royal Talens’ reputation grew and reached far beyond the country’s borders. A sales office was set up in the United States. With the ever-increasing production of oil colours and new products the business soon expanded for the first time. The demand for Talens products continued to grow, and in 1920 the company continued to expand and further automated the production. The high demands Talens had already set itself in 1949 regarding sound and high-quality innovation helped it acquire its 'Royal' designation. Royal Talens gives this honourable mention shape in a modern manner. In 1991 Royal Talens became part of the Sakura Color Products Corporation, with its headquarters in Osaka, Japan. Sakura offers Royal Talens a solid foundation for expansion and commercial success. Royal Talens has a strong and extensive network of international distributors.
