DeBeer Refinish

Brand Overview

DeBeer Refinish, formerly DeBeer (Holland), is a brand of Sherwin Willams. DeBeer was founded in 1910 and has been manufacturing car refinish paints since 1951. In 1980, the present production site at Lelystad was opened and they now deliver to more than 100 countries worldwide from there. 1982 saw the launch of their colour mixing systems, followed by the first water-based products around mid-2000. With the introduction of VOC legislation for EU member states from the start of 2007, the WaterBase 900 Series system, in combination with the HS420 3000 Series, has now grown into a complete VOC compliant product range.
