Create without compromise with Utrecht Cadmium-Free Artists’ Acrylics. This range of three reds and four yellows has been carefully developed to match the tint strength, brightness, opacity, and lightfastness of traditional cadmium pigments, offering professional performance without the environmental or health concerns.

In the past, artists seeking cadmium-free alternatives had to settle for mixed-pigment hues that approximated—but never rivaled—genuine cadmium colors. Leveraging the latest advancements in pigment technology, Utrecht Cadmium-Free Artists' Acrylics accurately replicate the brightness, mass tone, specific gravity, opacity, and handling of true cadmiums. In blind tests by professional artists, they proved indistinguishable—and sometimes even outperformed—their traditional cadmium counterparts. 

Because safety matters, Utrecht Cadmium-Free Artists’ Acrylics are AP-certified non-toxic by the Art and Creative Materials Institute (ACMI). They have been toxicologically evaluated to ensure they contain no materials harmful to humans, making them ideal for studios and educational settings alike.
