History – Fluorital

History

Fluorital was founded in 1956 as a family business synonymous with high-quality paints and inks.

1956

The origins

Fluorital opens in Villorba, in the province of Treviso, specialising in vitrifiable enamels for ceramics and glass panes.

1970

The revolution in silk screen printing inks

We launch our first silk screen printing inks for the home appliances segment and start working on plaques, aluminium and steel control panels, as well as plastics for ovens, washing machines and fridges.

1980

The glass and eyewear years

We focus on glass. This is the dawn of low-temperature organic paints for decorating glass in the lighting segment, and silk screen printing inks for design and furniture. At the same time, we invest in producing paints and enamels for the eyewear industry.

1990

The sustainable turn

The 1990s mark a turning point. Our proudest achievement is the development of water-based, non-flammable paints with a low volatile substance content for decorating glass.

2000

International expansion

Fluorital France opens in Amiens, and Fluorital USA is founded. These international locations aim to offer fast, efficient service to our French and US customers.

2010

Constant evolution

We celebrate our sixtieth anniversary with the same spirit of evolution that has always defined us, expanding internationally and launching the first water-based UV paint.
