Company history

Lakfa B.V. was founded under the name Artekobin Gesellschaft by Sigmund Stern in 1906. Our company established itself as a leading manufacturer of building paints for exterior and interior use. Most of our customers are professional painters that require only the best. The product range offers water- and solvent based paints. Well known brandnames are Lakfalin and Arteko Elastik.

Now with the third generation Stern in charge, it is heavily focussed on quality and personal service. In 1936 the company was renamed Lakfa B.V. We operate throughout Europe with convenient warehousing locations for fast deliveries. The head office is located in Amsterdam, The Netherlands. Lakfa complies strictly with all environmental laws and regulations (Coatings Care).
