Sustainability
AURO laboratory and production
Sustainable for over 35 years

AURO is the consistent forerunner and pioneer in the field of ecological natural paints and wood care products. The innovative and modern company has always consciously relied on substances from organic and mineral sources for its paints, lacquers, stains, oils and waxes. The combination of high-performance natural products with top technical quality is unique. The technical know-how and the special selection and composition of ingredients make the colours extraordinary. High-quality, purely mineral pigments are used to create authentic colour shades with high aesthetic standards. AURO products can easily be returned to the material cycle of nature, as can all woods treated with them.

The concept of producing high-performance natural products with high quality standards is uniquely implemented at AURO. In order to achieve this goal, the eco-pioneer uses his many years of experience in his own research and development, with his knowledge of the ideal ingredients and their interrelationships. The brand is regarded in the industry as a synonym for modern, ecological and high-quality natural products. This not only serves the change in consumer behavior with the ever-increasing interest of consistently green brands, but also the demand for premium colors in conjunction with the need for health, sustainability and ecology.

Since the company was founded in 1983, the guiding principles of sustainability have determined the company's business activities: Renewability, degradability and social aspects. AURO products are thus a consistently ecological part of biodiversity.

Raw material cycle
The material cycle of nature

For its products, AURO uses oils, resins, waxes and pigments from nature, so the production residues can be composted.

The idea of manufacturing products from natural substances was the brainchild of founder and chemist Dr. Hermann Fischer, who has been working towards "green chemistry" since the end of the 1970s, i.e. to produce everyday products based on plants, algae, microorganisms and mineral substances rather than petroleum. Numerous awards confirm the ongoing commitment.

Progress - nature and technology

Paints with the highest quality standards: For this purpose, the knowledge gained from projects as well as from daily use is brought together. The AURO Research & Development department brings together the right manufacturing process, the selection of the right ingredients and the knowledge of the interrelationships of the substances.

The intensive analysis of each ingredient was also the reason why we excluded petrochemical-based substances from AURO paints.

Top 10 building trends
The trend is towards sustainability

The trend is towards greater sustainability and environmental protection. A survey among  German painters and drywallers showed that ecological paints occupy the top position among the top 10 trend themes (34%).

Healthy living for a better quality of life - precisely these needs are met by the Ecolith professional system.

Thanks to its purely mineral character, Ecolith paints are free of acrylates and thus completely free of microplastics or other environmentally harmful ingredients.

If you have any questions about the new Ecolith professional system, simply contact your AURO distributor or retailer or ask the AURO export staff.
