Caparol is the premium brand of DAW SE (Deutsche Amphibolin-Werke von Robert Murjahn), an international family-owned coatings enterprise founded in 1895 in Ober-Ramstadt, Germany. Over 130 years of material innovation, Caparol revolutionized architectural coatings by developing the world’s first water-dilutable emulsion binder ("Caparol" – Casein, Paraffin, Oleum) and the iconic multi-coloured striped elephant emblem that represents technical durability and aesthetic vibrancy worldwide. In the Kenyan market, Caparol operates through a direct partnership with Nasib Industrial Products Limited, a respected local manufacturing company with over 30 years of industrial chemical experience, situated on the Ground Floor, Enterprise Road, Industrial Area, Nairobi. This collaboration combines German resin research and advanced tinting engineering with local production and distribution capabilities tailored to East Africa’s tropical climates, intense UV exposure, and masonry substrates. Sienna Paints Kenya is an independent paint retailer, sourcing provider, and professional painting and coating applicator. Sienna Paints Kenya does not claim ownership, manufacturing rights, or exclusive distributorship for Caparol products. Instead, Sienna bridges the gap between premium material specification and flawless site execution—helping Kenyan homeowners, architects, quantity surveyors, and project developers source genuine Caparol coatings, verify technical requirements, and deploy experienced coating technicians for high-specification applications. The Caparol portfolio available in Kenya spans six specialized architectural and industrial departments: 1. Interior & Healthy Living Paints: Washable, low-odour emulsions including CapaPlus Matt/Silk, CapaMatt, and CleanStar antibacterial wall coatings formulated for clean indoor air quality in residences and medical institutions. 2. High-Performance Smooth Exterior Paints: Formulations such as Nano 360 and CapaCoat Exterior Matt featuring nano-quartz lattice technology for superior dirt pick-up resistance and tropical UV stability. 3. Textured Facade Solutions: Trowel- and spray-applied acrylic textures including Rashaat, Travertine, StructurePutz (0.5mm, 1.5mm, 2mm), CapaStructure, and CapaGrain, engineered for high mechanical strength and architectural relief. 4. Authentic Natural Stone Finishes: Formulated stone systems including CeraTile, Granito, CeraTone, and Eurostone that replicate natural granites and fine stone masonry while eliminating the structural weight of dimensional stone cladding. 5. Anti-Carbonation & Structural Concrete Protection: Elastomeric protective coatings including FlexoTop and FlexoGuard that shield reinforced concrete infrastructure against carbon dioxide ingress, chloride attack, and moisture permeation. 6. Industrial & Commercial Floor Systems: Water-dispersed and solvent-free epoxy and polyurethane floor coatings (DisboPOX and DisboPUR systems) providing chemical resistance and seamless hygienic surfaces for factories, warehouses, and commercial spaces. Caparol formulations have been featured on notable Kenyan reference projects, including high-end private residences in Rosslyn, Tender Care School, Finpark Estate (142 luxury villas), and the KANHA Tower Helipad in Nairobi, as well as world-renowned international landmarks such as the Allianz Arena in Munich and Kempinski Hotel St. Moritz in Switzerland.
