After nearly 15 years of intensive research inside the laboratories of the
University of Texas-El Paso and among the Mayan ruins of Mexico and
Central America, a team led by chief chemist and Ph.D. Lori Polette-Niewold made a remarkable discovery. They learned precisely how and
why ancient Mayan murals still contained bright and brilliant colors after
thousands of years of exposure to the elements. With the help of this
scientific breakthrough, a remarkably innovative series of environmentally friendly pigments were invented and developed with bold colors and enhanced properties.
Today, Mayan Pigments, Inc., holds the exclusive worldwide license rights to the patents, intellectual property, and technology used to produce a range of colorants that are not heavy metal-based, yet exhibit outstanding high-performance properties, including chemical resistance, temperature stability, and light stability.
Now, you can use our discovery to create some breakthroughs of your own.
