In Europe, Blēo offers a comprehensive range of nine premium paint products, including traditional wall finishes, wood and metal coatings, floor-specific paint, and high-performance option for humid
environments. This includes ultra-matte textures, soft matte sheens, and a selection of effect and metallic finishes that respond to light with nuance and depth.

In North America, we currently offer three core paint finishes:

MATTE, SEMI GLOSS, and WET ROOM — carefully selected to meet the foundational
needs of both residential and professional projects. These finishes are formulated to deliver high durability, beautiful colour depth, and low environmental impact.

We are actively working to expand our U.S.
offering and will introduce more finishes later this year. As our production grows, our full European assortment will be made gradually
available across North Americ.

Minimise paint waste by estimating how much paint you will need before starting a project.

1 L of our paint covers approximately:

— 9 m2, when painted in one layer
— 4,5 m2, when painted in two layers
— 3 m2, when painted in three layers 

We recommend to use primer beneath your paint, when necessary. Otherwise, two layers of paint are enough for the main part of our colours, unless otherwise stated above, in our product description. 

Still in doubt? Write us at bleo@bleocollective.com and let us help you with your calculations.

Leftover paint? Keep it for another day. It’s possible to use leftover paint for up to two years after purchase, if stored correctly. The product should be stored at room temperature in a dry environment, and kept out of reach of children.

Primer might look like regular white paint, but it’s thicker and contains more pigment. Think of it as a base coat, providing a foundation that ensures a flawless finish. We have gathered the most imporant primers right here: Primers

In general, it's usually not necessary to use primer when you are painting with our ULTRA MATTE or MATTE finishes. Our paint is of so good quality that you simply don't need a primer. If you are in doubt, please email us: bleo@bleocollective.com and we will get back to you right away.

Primer isn’t always required, but you may need it when:

Your surfaces are porous and textured. Without being primed properly, too much paint will be absorbed, and you’ll need more than two layers to get a desired result.

You are about to make a radical change in colour. Whether you want to go from dark to light walls, or the other way around.

Your surface is matte, and you want to go glossy, or the other way around.

You made several repairs using filler and sandpaper, and your surfaces are now “spotted” and imperfect. You need to cover up stains and colour variations before applying paint.

Your walls are new and have not yet been painted. They could be drywall, skim coated drywall or plastered walls. A base layer of primer will help you save paint in the end.

Primer costs less than regular paint, so it’s generally a good idea to saturate and prep surfaces with primer before finishing with paint.

Our hand painted samples (210mm x 100mm) are made in our MATTE finish (except our 'Effect' colours that come in GLOSS samples), and they are hand painted to achieve the most truthful result. Use it as a tool — hang it on the wall to see how the hue interacts with others colours and materials, observe how it changes with the daylight, or use it as part of a moodboard. 

Our 80 ML paint and 8 oz. (Half pint) samples are made in our MATTE finish. Paint a square or a circle on the wall to see how the hue interacts with others colours and materials, and observe how the colour changes with the daylight.

If you have a specific request for another finish or variant, you can write to us at bleo@bleocollective.com

Note for North American Customers

Our hand painted samples are all crafted by hand in Europe and use a finish that differs slightly from what is available in the United States. As a result, the base material varies, and a few of the colours may show subtle differences compared to the final paint produced for the US market.

These differences are minimal — the result of careful adjustments made during the colour development process in our lab. Each colour has been meticulously refined and approved by our creative collaborators
specifically for the North American market. Still, at Blēo, we believe in transparency and clear communication.

We strongly recommend ordering our hand-painted samples as a reference — and, just as we advise our European customers, always testing with actual paint before
beginning any project.

Please note: Samples are shipped directly from our studio in Copenhagen. While we dispatch them within a few days, North American customers should expect a deliverytime of 6–9 working days after ordering.

There can be colour differences between one finish to another if the base is changing (eg. from MATTE to HIGH GLOSS or MINERALS), so we always recommend that you test both the colour and the finish you want before you start on your paint project. 

Recommended use for Blēo's Clear Colours
Clear Colours are a special category within the Blēo palette, formulated with exceptionally high pigmentation for unique intensity and depth. Because of this composition, they may appear almost transparent after the first coat. To reach full expression, we recommend 1–2 additional layers beyond the standard two, and the use of our Clear Colour Primer, individually matched to each shade and available in our primer category. Clear Colours are made for projects where colour must be at its most pure, luminous, and powerful.

Recommended use for Blēo's Metallic finishes
Blēo’s metallic finishes are made on a specially developed base that creates depth and luminosity. For best results, apply with a brush rather than a roller, and expect more than two coats. We recommend using a base colour in a similar tone to enhance coverage and depth — our team can advise on the right choice. With proper application, metallic finishes achieve a striking, aluminium-like clarity and sheen.

We ship paint orders within 1–3 business days to all countries in the European Union, Norway, Switzerland, the United Kingdom, the United States and a growing number of international destinations.

For customers in the United States, paint orders are fulfilled locally from our US production partner and are typically processed and shipped within 1–4 business days.

Tile orders are produced, prepared and shipped on a project-by-project basis. Lead times vary depending on the collection, quantity and destination. Estimated lead times will be communicated before order confirmation.

Please note:

– Orders delivered within the European Union are shipped without additional import duties or customs charges.

– Paint orders delivered within the United States are fulfilled locally and are therefore not subject to import duties.

– Tiles and certain other products may be shipped from Europe. For orders delivered outside the European Union, local import VAT, customs duties, handling fees and other local taxes may apply. These charges are determined by local authorities and remain the responsibility of the recipient.

We work with both international and domestic shipping partners. In most areas, we offer both home delivery and delivery to a nearby pick-up point where available.

Once your order has been packed, you will receive tracking information so you can follow the shipment. Delivery times vary depending on destination, order size and product type.

We only receive complaints where we have delivered an incorrect colour, a wrong finish or where the product is in a bad condition. We do not accept complaints about installation costs, nor invoices from painters etc.
