Royal Talens is a Dutch company located in Apeldoorn that specializes in art materials.

The company produces and markets its own products, apart from commercializing other licensed brands, such as Van Gogh, Rembrandt, and Bruynzeel.

[2] In the past, Talens has also produced fountain pen ink, typewriter ribbon, carbon paper and other office supplies.

Whilst this initially involved only office supplies, in 1899 it started to produce Rembrandt oil colours as well.

During World War II there was a shortage of raw materials, and the factory sustained a great deal of damage by a stray bomb.

In 1991 Royal Talens became part of the Sakura Color Products Corporation, a privately owned firm based in Osaka.
