When specifying for large shopping centres or small independent stores, the products you select must be able to withstand high levels of traffic, and at the same time, enhance the customer experience.
Our team of experts have everything you need to deliver a specification that meets these demands – from hard-wearing and scrubbable paints, to sector-specific colour knowledge, and online tools that make the whole process simple.
We're here to help you
We offer products built for busy environments, including the scuff and stain resistant Dulux Trade Diamond and Scuffshield ranges, both designed to protect store surfaces.
We also know that the right colours can influence emotions and behaviours of shoppers. So, our colour consultants can guide you on selecting schemes that put the customer first.
Our experienced team can also advise you on improving maintenance cycles and minimising any environmental impact, helping you specify the right products and colours for outstanding results.
