With a vision to develop a paint company in Pakistan that delivers products of international quality standards and state-of-the-art paint development techniques, Brighto Paints was established in 1973 in Lahore. The idea was to diminish the gap between the international production and supply of paint in Pakistan and be a market leader in all aspects of development in the paint industry.
Pakistan’s first paint production company, Brighto Paints, was destined to paint a bright future for this industry from day one. When in 1973, Mr Kh. Riaz Ahmed Sikka laid the foundation of the company at Saeed Park, Shahdara, Lahore, his resilience and business intelligence led Brighto Paints to become the market leader today. What started with the production of Synthetic Enamel Paint, the first for Pakistan, the production design is still followed as an industry norm even after three decades.
Mr Sikka is limitlessly built his empire, block by block. A new production plant was established in 1981 at Majid Street, Bara Dari Road, Shahdara, Lahore. The plant had exceptional production facility and techniques, and innovative methods to produce high quality products. Production of water based paints started the same year—a revolutionary step towards industrializing the paint business on a large scale.
From oil-based paints to water-based paints, the journey of Brighto Paints took a new turn in 1989 with the establishment of Pakistan’s first Alkyd Resin Plant, under the name of Sikka Enterprises—as a sister concern of Brighto Paints. The Alkyd Resin plant was designed to process soya bean, vegetable oil and other such additives to produce alkyd resin; a significant raw material for oil-based paints.
In the year 2000, Brighto placed the mantle of its business presence in the market by becoming a private limited firm under the Company’s Ordinance Act of 1973, and opened newer doors of unlimited opportunities and successes.
