Paint Companies in the UK

Types and Uses

On the stage of home improvement, paints play the biggest role. Interior and exterior walls, ceilings, doors and window frames – there are dozens of places on a new build or refurbishment project where the correct choice of paint makes the world of difference to the aesthetics and function of a building.

There are now paint finishes to suit different substrates and various applications – and the colour choice is immense. Today, it’s not just a choice between gloss and matt; there are paints to give a soft sheen finish, smooth and textured masonry paints, heavy duty floor paints, flexible paints, chemical resisting paints for industrial areas, anti-bacterial paints for health facilities and paints to guard against algae growth. There is also an increased emphasis on sustainability, with new products and recycling methods always being developed with the environment in mind.

Paint companies have skilled teams able to advise on the best product for a given task and colour consultants to help professionals achieve the desired effect.
