Leave the risk taking to your art, not your choice in materials. Our new cadmium-free paints deliver the same performance, lightfastness, and vibrancy as our existing cadmium paints – they’re just safer for you.
Liquitex was the first water-based acrylic paint created in 1955. Since there is no universal agreement on the potential harm of cadmium pigments Liquitex has decided to acknowledge this and offer alternatives side by side so that arts can make their choice in accord with personal preference.
