High quality and advanced technology products

Jotun’s history - over 90 proud years of business
It all started in 1926
Jotun’s founder, Odd Gleditsch sr., opens a combined color/ship supply store
in Sandefjord. It was a good time for the whaling industry, and Gleditsch sr.
soon worked his way into the business of supplier to the whaling fleets in
Sandefjord, Tønsberg, and Larvik.
Odd Gleditsch sr. played a very special role in the development of Jotun. His
personality had an extraordinary influence on the company, on employees,
among customers, and on everyone with whom he came
in contact.
He had a particular gift for creating enthusiasm among employees at all
levels. He once said; “If I have a secret weapon, it is my ability to find
able employees and to listen, and listen carefully, to their thoughts,
suggestions and ideas.” Many people would say that it was this very way
of thinking that created the able employees.
