In 1916, the Nederlandsche Elektrische Lakfabriek (N.E.L.F.) was one of the first paint manufacturers in the Netherlands to use electricity to produce paint. Soon after the start, Nelf develops special coatings and protective products for the nautical sector. And not without success! The marine branch grows and becomes the favourite brand of a broad customer base in the Netherlands and far beyond. Since 2008, under the flag of Nelf Marine Paints, all nautical knowledge, skills and capacity have been combined to serve this specialist, international market even better.
