ColorFrog is a classroom paint dispenser that serves up a thousand colors!

Simply load four pints or quarts of primary colors into ColorFrog and use the touchscreen to choose very specific ratios of the primary colors to create one of a 1000 different colors.

Students are attracted to this useful tool, and even second-graders are able to operate it unassisted. 

Perhaps without realizing it, art students are learning about the color space and how to navigate around it. They also begin to know what 10 milliliters look like as they select their sample size.

All grade levels can interact with ColorFrog, being perfect for washable tempera paints or acrylics. Painters of fine art can return to the exact shade by repeating the unique color number. 

The students benefit but the art teacher is the hero by bringing something fresh and interesting to the table.

About ColorFrog

ColorFrog draws kids in from every grade level. It's approachable and within a minute, they get what to do.

Art teachers love the freedom, and beyond school, designers love the flexibility and landlords love the efficiency.

ColorFrog is a hit in senior centers, studios, daycares and art camps.

How ColorFrog Works

It’s simple:

From bottles of tempera or acrylic primary colored paint:

  • Choose your color from the Seed Chart,
  • Enter the code (or choose your own code),
  • ColorFrog dispenses paint in the exact ratios,
  • Stir the paint, carefully mixing all the colors, and
  • Name it!

No more waste. Make the exact amount you need, when you need it. And a child can serve up the colors on this optional Palette Tray.

ColorFrog paint portions are from 10 to 100 milliliters and cost just pennies, compared to an $8 store sample.

Make the exact amount you need, when you need it.

Designed and Built for Classroom Creativity

ColorFrog was thoughtfully created so young students can operate it independently.

That means:

  • Less waiting for teacher assistance
  • More hands-on creativity
  • Greater exploration of color theory
  • Unlimited imagination

From elementary art rooms to senior centers, daycare, and community makerspaces, ColorFrog broadens creative possibilities and empowers artists of all ages.

We believe every art room deserves a ColorFrog.

Practical Power for Construction & Remodeling

ColorFrog is not just for art. It is also a powerful tool in construction and remodeling environments.

It is ideal for the following:

  • Designers and remodelers needing precise custom matches
  • Maintenance and make-ready crews
  • Handymen and DIYers
  • Touch-ups and repair projects

Instead of storing leftover paint that goes bad, ColorFrog creates fresh paint in the exact amount required.

It eliminates waste, reduces cost, and simplifies color matching on the job site.

Portable. Durable. Guaranteed to perform.
