‘The rediscovery of ancient wisdom’

'Swedish Linseed Paint' is the sole distributor in the UK of the ‘Allback’ high quality range of linseed oil paint products from Sweden. These products are made using rediscovered traditional recipes and are ‘long lasting’, ‘cost effective’, 100% solvent free and environmentally friendly.

Our collaboration with the Allbacks began in France where we became the sole distributors in 2007. We have worked 'hands-on' and in an advisory capacity on hundreds of projects culminating in work at Versailles and on the Chateau itself. The Swedish Heritage Board filmed at Versailles a documentary celebrating the extraordinary work and life of Hans & Sonja Allback.

Kevin Davies (Director) founded the business with Sue Reed (Accounts & Administrator) and he is a fully qualified and practising Chartered Architect, holding memberships with the RIBA and ARB, with over 25 years experience of heritage work and to Listed Buildings.

If you are interested in sensitive property restoration or need to source high quality environmentally friendly paint products this may be of interest to you.

LONG LASTING

Allback Linseed Paints last up to 3 times longer than modern paints. Not only will the subtle paint colours decorate your woodwork beautifully, but the linseed oil in the paint gives protection and nourishment to the wood itself.

COST EFFECTIVE

With their dramatically longer life span, Allback Linseed Paints will yield significant cost savings over time.

ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY

Allback Linseed Paints are made from natural 100% pure linseed oil, derived from renewable and sustainable resources.  We use natural paint pigments and no added solvents.
