Working at
Klint

Welcome to Klint! 🎨 We help more people decorate the spaces they love with paint in a sustainable way. 🌿 Today, furnishing and decorating the places we live in with paint is a mix of: 1. Fun! (getting inspired, visualizing different colours, matching colours, textiles and styles) 2. Not-so-much-fun (driving to the paint store, looking at +100s of shades of paint, driving back and forth a few times for more samples, maybe once more for some extra painter's tape, etc.) At Klint - we hope to be able to keep the fun (!) and skip the not-so-much-fun, while also supporting the shift towards a more sustainable future, starting with our recyclable paint packaging. Sounds fun? Then we would love to hear from you. 👋 Warm regards, Team Klint
