Gender Pay Gap Report 2026

At Farrow & Ball, we believe in recognising, understanding, and celebrating the unique qualities that make each of us individual, valued and entirely unmatchable. Just as our colours are carefully handcrafted, our people are shaped by a rich palette of lived experiences, backgrounds, characteristics, and aspirations. This diversity is what makes us authentic and able to deliver the quality we are known for.

Our inclusivity agenda is not about chasing trends or creating headlines. It is about ensuring Farrow & Ball is a place that genuinely attracts, welcomes, respects, and celebrates everyone for their unmatchable story. We believe that diversity delivers better outcomes for our people, our business, and our customers.

As part of Hempel a global coatings company committed to making our world last longer, beautifully, we share a strong commitment to creating an inclusive, supportive, and equitable workplace. While our industry has historically been dominated by one gender, we are proud to be far more balanced today:

62.3% of all Farrow and Ball colleagues are women

62.5% of our leadership roles are held by women


This Gender Pay Gap Report forms part of that ongoing commitment. It provides important insight into our current position, the progress we have made and the actions we are taking to ensure fairness, equity and opportunity continue to underpin life at Farrow & Ball.
