Buy black paint & shades
Black paint does more than you might think. It adds depth to a room, gives character to a single piece of furniture and works just as well in a modern living room as in a classic hallway. On this page, you'll find LAB's full black range: wall paint, trim paint and coatings in exclusive shades, premium quality and exclusively water-based.
Our black paint and wall paint
LAB develops paint in collaboration with experts, and this is evident in the black collection. Not generic black from a standard color chart, but carefully formulated shades, each with its own undertone: warm and earthy, cooler and graphic, or deep and almost neutral.
All paint is water-based and developed in the Netherlands. Available for walls, wood, furniture and other surfaces, so you can carry the same color consistently throughout your interior.
Types of black paint
LAB offers black paint in more than 15 paint types, including wall paint, trim paint and coatings. Choose the shade first, then the paint type. So you can finish your wall, window frame and furniture in exactly the same color.
Black wall paint
Black wall paint works on drywall, plastered walls and previously painted surfaces. Suitable for any room, although a completely black room requires a little more attention to lighting and furnishings than an accent wall.
Available finish: matte. Matte gives the deepest, most light-absorbing look and is ideal for living rooms and bedrooms.
Black trim paint
For wood, metal and furniture. Black trim paint works well on doors, window frames, radiators and cabinets. Finishes range from matte to high gloss, depending on the effect you're looking for and the material you're painting.
Black coatings
LAB has a range of signature coatings, some of which are available in shades of black. Coatings are designed for specific surfaces and applications where regular wall or trim paint is less suitable. Think bathroom coating, stair coating and floor coating.
Benefits of black paint in your interior
Black absorbs light, adding depth to a room. A black feature wall instantly makes a room feel bolder and more focused, without having to change the entire decor.
Black is also practical: dirt-repellent in matte, easy to clean in satin, and timeless in almost any combination. Black goes with virtually any other color and doesn't have to dominate.
Practical benefit: good-quality black paint covers in fewer coats than you might expect, even over lighter surfaces.
Black paint for every room
- Living room: choose matte for a warm, atmospheric feature wall behind the sofa or sideboard. Matte gives the color the most depth.
- Bedroom: a black feature wall works surprisingly well. The cocoon effect makes the room feel calmer. Choose matte or satin for a soft look.
- Hallway: the hallway can take a lot of wear. Choose satin for a practical finish that withstands scuffs and contact well, while still giving the narrow space character.
