Our Story

We're Reece and Joe, the very proud creators and owners of Cornish Mineral Paint™. 

Our Journey Begins: 

We have been furniture painters for the past fourteen years, learning all we can about upcycling, being sustainable and the finishes different paints offer for unique furnishes. We have owned three retail shops in Cornwall over the past ten years. 

After stocking a variety of different furniture and decorative paints within our retail shops, we never really found paint colours which represented our surroundings and flare for Cornish rustic furniture, so after brainstorming and putting a plan together, we both decided to create our very own decorative paint line that would truly capture the true essence of Cornwall and showcase the beautiful colours this ansom part of the country has to offer, as well as othering a new vegan, plant-based and environmentally-friendly paint line within the UK paint market. 

After many months of research, making different paint samples and visiting all the iconic places in Cornwall for colour inspiration, we finally had everything in place and launched our first paint line ‘’Cornish Milk Mineral Paint™’’ on the 10th January 2020.

Where we are now: 

After three years of producing Cornish Milk Mineral Paint™, we decided it was time to reinvent our paintline and to reformulate all our products, recreating all our iconic colours. Since the launch of Cornish Milk Mineral Paint™ in 2020, new paint making techniques, technology and sustainable ingredients have become widely available, so we wanted to implement these into our paintline. Along with our paint chemist, we have developed a whole new range, designed new modern branding, offering new sustainable Bio-PET packaging. 

We are very proud of Cornish Mineral Paint™ and all the new benefits our paintline has to offer our users. We have also introduced seven new iconic shades, which we know you are all going to love and enjoy using as much as we do. 

We both consider Cornish Mineral Paint™ more than just a paint line, it's our family and our true passion in life. Together with our three young children and our family of UK Stockists, we work hard to make sure that all of our mineral paints and products are made with the highest quality plant-based ingredients, using only real Cornish earth pigments for truly unique Cornish colour shades, which are different to other paint brands.

Staying Traditional: 

From Cornish Mineral Paint™ HQ in Truro, Cornwall, as a family we pour, pack, and label everything by our own hands and that's just the way we like it. We only use old traditional paint making and pouring methods, to make sure our products are truly sustainable and have no negative effects to our planet. 

Thank you for choosing to paint and making your home beautiful using our Cornish Mineral Paint™

Love, Reece, Joe, Ayden, Elle, and Ruben x
