Ultimate Sophistication: ktCOLOR's Black Shades for Your Designs

ktCOLOR's black paints are a class apart, crafted with natural pigments like volcanic ash to deliver unparalleled depth, richness, and sustainability. For authoritative designs of great elegance, these exceptional hues with a velvety, luxurious finish are the gold standard. For designs both subtle and bold, understated yet impactful, there is no better selection than the 16 ktCOLOR blacks.

As rich as dark, red grapes harvested late in autumn.

Colorful blacks are made by adding small amounts of a chromatic pigment to black. Well aware of its advantages, we chose ivory black as the pigment for our base paint, even though it has such a high tinting strength, deep color, and coarse texture that most pigments cannot assert themselves in mixtures. Magenta, however, an extraordinarily fine-grained pigment, settles in the voids, allowing a delicate red to glow out of the intermediate spaces. The opulence of the mixture of these two dramatically different pigments is noteworthy.
