To quote a cliche, Rome wasn't built in a day. Similarly, Berger grew over two hundred and forty years. Transiting smoothly through different eras, it is moving effortlessly from the period of industrial revolution to the period of silicon microchips.It all began in 1760, when a young German chemist, Lewis Berger, perfected a new process for making the colour Prussian Blue. Considering that it was the colour of most military uniforms then, the pigment assumed great importance, and the business, a great thrust.It didn't take long for the company to move from the production of dyes and pigments to the production of paints and coatings. With a strong reputation for innovation and entrepreneurship, Lewis Berger and Sons Ltd. grew rapidly.
