Crown-Berger Kenya Limited is a titan in the paints manufacturing sector in East Africa. It is renown for its commitment to the production of high-quality paints. The company boasts a significant market share not only of decorative but also automotive and industrial paints.

Its flagship brands, Crown and Robbialac, are market leaders in decorative paints, while Viton and Berger brands are well-known in automotive and industrial application.

Its market dominance is a result of huge investment in the establishment and promotion of these brands. Similar investments have over the years been committed to creating and maintaining national distribution networks to ensure the availability of Crown-Berger paints countrywide.

Crown-Berger Kenya Ltd, as it is today, is an integration of various businesses over the years. The most recent acquisition was Twiga Paints Limited in 1995.

Crown-Berger Ltd's management changed hands in late 1998, with the Groupe H. Ramji acquiring majority shares in the company. The group promises to steer the company to even greater heights. Given the managers' past success in diverse businesses, this will become reality.

The company manufactures the famous Crown, Robbialac and Dulux brands (the latter under licence from ICI who also extend technological support to Crown-Berger Kenya Ltd).

The company also manufactures Alkyd and PVA Resins, which are the basic raw materials of oil and water-based paints. Besides meeting its own requirements, Crown-Berger supplies these ingredients to several other local manufacturers.

Crown-Berger's product range also includes PVC pipes and fittings, and decorative sundries such as adhesives and the well-known Pollyfilla brand products.

This capability to produce a diversified range of decorative and industrial paints, paint ingredients and decorative sundries is unique to Crown-Berger.
