Old Flax
Is a Dutch paint brand that has endless possibilities with more than 180 colors, 5 types of preparatory products, 10 types of paint and 3 types of finishing specials. All paints are colored with natural and organic pigments, which originate from nature and contribute to the sustainability and quality requirements. LAB is an exclusive Star Dealer of Pure & Original. We have a mixing machine at our disposal with which we can mix all colors and types of paint.
SAMPLE JAR
Try out a colour? Then use a sample pot. With a sample pot you can test a colour directly on the wall or a sheet of paper and discover how the colour will turn out in your home. The sample pot contains Classico. This is a very matt chalk paint with a powdery appearance. The sample pots serve as a basis for testing all types of paint. Depending on the type of paint chosen, it is possible that the colour deviates slightly from the shade in the sample pot.
LAB Color Sample
Do you want to be able to properly assess a colour for your project or space? Then choose the large LAB Colour Samples. These 20 x 20 cm colour samples are painted with real paint. This way you can be sure that you are choosing the right shade. These large colour samples also serve as a basis for assessing our other paints, coatings and specials. For the specials, this is an approximation of the colour, partly due to the colour shades. LAB PAINT is also available in a different gloss level per product. Depending on the product chosen, the colour may deviate slightly from the colour sample.
These large colour samples feature a characteristic brush stripe. In addition, the back features a stimulating colour description and an inspiring combination suggestion with one or more of the other LAB COLOURS. Of course, these colour samples are also ideal if you want to create a beautiful mood board for your project.
Would you rather have all 176 LAB COLOURS clearly listed? Then choose the LAB Colour Fan of 20 x 6.7 cm or the luxury LAB Album. The latter contains all large colour samples of the LAB COLOUR COLLECTION. Would you rather assess a colour as paint on your ceiling or wall? Then we would like to refer you to our sample pots .
