OUR COMPANY

History and Presentation:

Colorantes Industriales was founded in Barcelona in 1983 as a company specialized in dyes for the Tanning, Textile and Paper industries.

Its first target was the Spanish market, where today it is the leader in Tanning at the forefront of all multinational companies and a reference company in Textile. But since then it has gone far ahead focusing on internationalization, gaining scale and worldwide presence.

Today exports account for 70% of the business, selling to more than 35 countries, through a strong network of agents and distributors as well as local subsidiaries in Italy and Argentina.

In 2001 the company centralized its activity in Castellbisbal, on a 14,000 m2 land at 15 km from Barcelona, where a modern plant was built gathering together the offices, the production line, the laboratory and the warehouses.
