In addition to the use of Johnstone’s Acrylic Durable Matt, the team utilised products from the Steel and Cladding range to provide lasting protection to exposed steel beams in the main sports hall.
Johnstone’s Flortred, meanwhile, was applied on floors in the plant rooms across the new building.
Keith Brown of Concept Painting Contractors: ñWe’d had some excellent feedback from the team after using Johnstone’s Acrylic Durable Matt on a previous project, saying that it was very easy to apply and provided excellent coverage. The support provided by Johnstone’s in supplying the product in the exact colours we required was first class and played an integral role in the success of the project.î
