About AURO:
The company AURO was founded in 1983 as a limited liability company and was transformed into AURO Pflanzenchemie AG in 1998. The company is based in Braunschweig. AURO is a consistent pioneer in the field of ecological paints, wood care and cleaning products. For its paints, varnishes, glazes, oils, waxes, cleaning and care products, the company has always made a conscious decision to use substances derived from plant and mineral sources. The stylish shades have a particularly authentic and aesthetic appearance thanks to the environmentally friendly formulation. The concept of producing high-performance natural products with high quality standards is unique. Founder and eco-pioneer Dr. Hermann Fischer has been campaigning for “green chemistry” since the end of the 1970s, i.e. for everyday products to be based on plants, algae, microorganisms and minerals rather than petroleum. He has received numerous awards for his commitment, including the “Friends of Earth” environmental prize and was voted Eco-Manager of the Year by WWF and Capital. Production takes place in Germany. All products are available in over 700 specialist stores in Germany. They are exported to other European countries as well as North America, Canada and Asia. Numerous awards confirm AURO’s commitment.
