Marabu is a world-renowned brand with a rich history dating back to 1859. Founded by Albert Martz in Stuttgart, Germany, it began as a retail business for artists' and architects' supplies. Over the decades, the company transitioned from trade to production, becoming a pioneer in the development of specialized printing inks and high-quality colors for hobbies, crafts, and professional art.
Today, Marabu is a global leader in both the industrial and creative sectors. Its industrial division produces high-tech screening, digital, and pad printing inks, while its creative division offers a vast range of products including acrylics, glass paints, and textile markers. The brand maintains a strong commitment to quality and environmental sustainability, often being at the forefront of solvent-free and water-based ink technologies.
The company remains a family-owned enterprise through the Marabu GmbH & Co. KG. Most of its production and research activities are concentrated at its headquarters in Tamm, near Stuttgart, ensuring the 'Made in Germany' quality label remains a core part of its identity. With subsidiaries across Europe, North America, and Asia, Marabu distributes its products to over 80 countries worldwide.
