History

Pyrrole Red, used as an automotive paint and as a colourant in plastics, was developed as a range of pigments to replace lead-based pigments. In art materials, it is often used as a synthetic and lightfast replacement for carmine, a laked pigment initially produced from the body of the cochineal insect. It also replaces the older naphthol reds, organic red pigments that are sometimes only marginally lightfast and weather fast.
