With more than 250 years of rich heritage, Berger manufactures world class paints for all kinds of substrates and also provides unparallel services. Berger’s inception was laid out.

In 1760 by a German national named Louis Berger, who started dye and pigment making business in England. Louis involved his family into the business and eventually changed the status of the company to Louis Berger & Sons Limited. Louis successfully refined the process of manufacturing Prussian blue, a deep blue dye. This dye was widely used for the uniforms of many European armies of that time. Production of dyes and pigments evolved into production of paints and coatings, which till today, remains the core business of Berger. The company grew rapidly, by establishing branches all over the world and through mergers and acquisitions with other leading paint and coating manufacturing companies.
