Holliday Premium Pigments

Holliday Premium Pigments is a leading European producer of ultramarine blue, violet, and pink pigments, serving diverse applications in plastics, cosmetics, paints & coatings, building materials, and artistic colors with unique processes allowing better stability and mixability than comparable products.

Located in Comines, France, near the Belgian border, the site boasts nearly a century of industrial heritage and technical expertise embodied by its 115 employees, allowing it to provide the highest purity and quality of blue, violet and pink pigment powders for specialty applications.

The business benefits from a strong market position, ranking second globally in technical grade ultramarine pigments and maintains long-standing relationships with blue-chip customers and distributors across Europe, Asia, and the Americas.

Strategy

Once the acquisition is realized and the carve-out is completed from the Venator Group, Mutares intends to reinforce the company’s positioning on its market by improving the reliability of its industrial tool through targeted investments, developing further capacities to propose higher grades of technical pigments and reduce the company’s environmental footprint.

A dedicated team of Mutares experts should be allocated to Holliday Premium Pigments to support this industrial transformation and accelerate its commercial development to consolidate its position on the market as the leading provider of specialty grade blue pigments.
