Torrit Grey

Recycling oil colors and pigment into paint

If you took all the pigments in the color spectrum and mixed them together, what color would you make?

Every spring, Gamblin Artists Colors collects a wealth of pigments from our Torit® Air Filtration system. We filter the air around the areas where we handle dry pigments so that our workers are not exposed to pigment dust. Rather than sending any of our high quality, expensive pigments into the landfill, Gamblin paint makers recycle them into Gamblin Torrit Grey.

The mix of pigments is different every year, so Torrit Grey is always unique and will never be repeated. Torrit Grey tends to have a greenish tinge because of the great strength of the Phthalo Green pigment, which is a dark bluish green. Torrit Grey varies from a medium dove grey to a dark earthy grey.

Our Torrit Grey store promotion, which runs each spring in celebration of Earth Day, not only recycles pigment dust into paint but focuses artists on the importance of recycling and studio and environmental safety.

“Pigment dust should not go into the earth, water or landfill, but into paint,” says Robert Gamblin.

Donaldson® Torit® has been improving industrial air quality for over 90 years. To learn more about their various air filtration solutions, visit Donaldson Torit.
