British Paints

British Paints was founded in 1919 and, after a series of mergers and takeovers, entered India in 1947. It offered a wide range of architectural and industrial coatings which over time gained recognition across the country. In 1983, the brand was re-named Berger Paints. However, in 2009, British Paints was re-introduced into the country with its globally recognized corporate brand, as a SBU of Berger Paints India Limited, with head quarters in New Delhi. It now operates in the Retail, Industrial & Projects verticals.

British Paints has in its portfolio a complete range of decorative and general industrial coatings which are distributed pan-India through a network of 50 branch offices and over 12,000 channel partners. These are serviced by dedicated manufacturing units located in Uttar Pradesh and Jammu & Kashmir.

Their many brands such as Glo, Expa Cool, Shingar, British, MasterBlaster and Acri-silk have become household names, with wide spread use worldwide.
