Marketing manager for Johnstone’s Trade, Megan Esmond, said: ““As a brand, our aim is to work with our customers and global teams to provide new and technically advanced products, as well as delivering our commitment to service excellence.”

A new product and colour card has been launched for contractors, and specifiers can download resources via the Armstead Trade page on the Dulux Trade Paint Expert website and iPhone app.

Johnstone’s staff provided technical advice throughout the process and work undertaken included stripping away old wallpaper from the Georgian property, which was built in 1786.

The product is available in over 14,000 colours and can be used by specifiers as evidence for building certification schemes, such as BREEAM and SKA due to its attainment of EPD.

The website also features the PaintSpec Finder, which allows users to select products and produce a personal cover sheet to present to clients or add to tender or reference documents.

A collector card will be stamped for every transaction, which when completed will be entered into the prize draw, with a separate draw taking place in each of Johnstone’s 177 decorating centres.

Marketing Manager at Crown Paints, Debbie Orr, said: ““We were eager to help the artists explore their responses to colour as we are very aware of how great an impact it has on us all.”

Sharon Smith, Sadolin Brand Manager says: “We’re giving Sadolin customers these fantastic footballs as a ‘thank you’. We’ve got thousands to give away but we know demand will outstrip supply, so make sure you don’t miss out and stock up early.”
