Umton Zinc White is a professional tempera gouache developed for artists, illustrators, and graphic work. The paint is made from high-quality pigments with a stable and reliable chemical composition.
This colour is based on PW4 (Zinc Oxide) and PW5 (Lithopone) and bound with a special gum arabic–based emulsion, providing smooth application, even colour distribution, and a characteristic matte surface. Zinc White offers controlled opacity and gentle whitening properties, making it especially suitable for mixing, lightening colours, and subtle tonal work.
Umton tempera gouache is produced with particular attention to homogenization and stabilization of its components, ensuring consistent colour behaviour and long-term reliability.
