The Wall 4 months agoCe fut un plaisir de participer hier au Salon du Faire Soi-Même 2025 et de rencontrer les nombreux artistes qui utilisent les produits Lefranc Bourgeois. Cet événement nous a permis d’échanger directement avec eux, de mieux comprendre leurs attentes et d’observer l’usage de nos produits par les consommateurs finaux à travers différents ateliers à la gouache, aquarelle..
Un bel événement qui nous rappelle, une fois de plus, à quel point il est important d’oser peindre It was a pleasure to attend the 2025 DIY Fair yesterday and meet the many artists who use Lefranc Bourgeois products. The event gave us the opportunity to talk directly with them, better understand their expectations, and observe how our products are used by end consumers through various workshops, including gouache and watercolor sessions.A wonderful event that reminds us, once again, just how important it is to dare to paint.

The Wall 4 months, 1 week agoA reminder that everyone has a community day to use to give back and help create impact in your local community. This time of year there can be more opportunities to give back. I have booked my community day in to help prep vegetables /food for a Christmas dinner in a homeless shelter (even though I am terrible with a veg peeler!) Colart year to date has made a big impact already this year versus last year with a 24% increase in community hours used so lets help finish the year strong if you haven\’t used yours yet. If you have community give back planned or have done one it would be great to share what you are doing to help inspire others.

Millions of tonnes of clothing, shoes and other textiles end up in landfill every year because very little is sent for recycling .
“The current fashion system uses high volumes of non-renewable resources, including petroleum, extracted to produce clothes that are often used only for a short period of time, after which the materials are largely lost to landfill or incineration. “This system puts pressure on valuable resources such as water, pollutes the environment and degrades ecosystems in addition to creating societal impacts on a global scale.” There are good reasons to seek out alternatives to chucking clothes in the bin – globally the fashion industry is responsible for 10% of all greenhouse gas emissions, with textile production alone is estimated to release 1.2 billion tonnes of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere every year. Vast amounts of water are also needed to produce the clothes we wear too and the fashion industry is responsible for 20% of global waste water. At the same time we are buying more clothes than ever – the average consumer now buys 60% more clothing than they did 15 years ago. More than two tonnes of clothing are bought each minute in the UK, more than any other country in Europe. Globally, around 56 million tonnes of clothing are bought each year, and this is expected to rise to 93 million tonnes by 2030 and 160 million tonnes by 2050.
"Reuse. Recycle. Rethink — your clothes deserve a second life, not a landfill."
