AkzoNobel, the world's largest paint manufacturer and one of the leaders in the Russian market, has begun an independent examination of its flagship products under the Dulux brand. Testing will be carried out by leading Russian independent testing centers, including the City Coordination Expert Research Center ENLACOM. The paints will be tested for compliance with the characteristics stated on their packaging: durability, resistance to abrasion and washing. For AkzoNobel, such expertise is a matter of course - tests are regularly carried out in other countries and each time they confirm that AkzoNobel and, in particular, Dulux, are fulfilling their promises to consumers when they offer them quality, environmentally friendly and innovative products.
One of these products is the popular Dulux Trade Vinyl Matt paint. It does not contain volatile organic substances and therefore can be used in children's and health care facilities. This paint belongs to the Dulux "EcoDesign" series - this is a new direction in creating at the same time a beautiful and safe interior of the house. This paint contains no organic solvents.
Dulux Trade Vinyl Matt paint is suitable for application on completely dried mineral surfaces (concrete, plaster, brick, etc.), drywall, paintable wallpaper. Recommended for painting walls and ceilings in rooms with moderate humidity, such as bedrooms, closets, living rooms, offices, libraries.
This paint is the result of the company's own development. Thanks to them, it is one of the most matte among washable paints. The consistency of the paint makes it easier to apply - splashes and drips are excluded. At the same time, one liter of paint is enough for an area of up to seventeen square meters. It is recommended to apply Dulux Vinyl Matt in two layers: for the first - primer - it needs to be slightly diluted with water (one part of water for five parts of paint); for the second layer, you can thin it in a ratio of one to ten.
The manufacturing company carefully studies the requests of designers and decorators and uses the results of this research when developing new paints in order to create the most relevant and demanded product. The result of these innovations is the Dulux Trade Vinyl Matt paint, which conceals minor surface imperfections and creates an extremely smooth and velvety surface. Keeps a fresh look for a long time and does not lag behind the wall. Easy to apply, does not have a pungent odor and dries four hours after application without leaving brush marks.
The company's research concerns not only the chemical and physical properties of paints, but also their color (for example, Dulux Trade Vinyl Matt paint is available in more than two thousand shades). AkzoNobel actively researches contemporary color fashion in design in order to anticipate the needs of its customers. The company believes that future color trends are shaped in the context of global trends in the life of society, economy and design.
For example, AkzoNobel refers to teal as the main color of 2014. It owes its name to the bird, in the plumage of which this rich blue-green hue is present. It is obtained by adding a primary (primary) blue to a mixed (secondary) green. Teal is deeper and more complex than turquoise and is often used to convey the color of the tropical sea - shimmering and bluish green.
