In-house manufacturing capability

Luminochem’s products are manufactured in its own production facility, in the heart of Europe, in Budapest, Hungary, maintaining control of the entire process from chemical synthesis, micronization to quality control — ensuring maximum supply chain integrity and product consistency between batches.

With expanding infrastructure being actively developed, using cutting-edge manufacturing equipment and a qualified team led by several PhD Chemists, Luminochem follows strict quality assurance standards which enable consistent industrial-scale production while retaining the highest pigment quality.

As a result, Luminochem is already capable of manufacturing up to 10 tons of its core products per year.
