Inside every tin of paint is a mix of art, science and a little bit of magic that make Dulux the nation’s favourite paint

Only the finest ingredients

What’s in a tin of Dulux 1

Not all paints are made equal. Our premium products are crafted using the very best ingredients and, like the finest chocolate, the consistency is creamy and a little really does go a long way. Just as you wouldn’t give cheap chocolate to someone you love, you wouldn’t paint the places you really care about with average paint, either. Our paint may cost a little more, but because of the premium quality of all our products – which go further and last longer ­– you actually save money in the long-run when you use Dulux. Proof indeed that there is so much more in a tin of Dulux paint than just paint...

Inspired by nature

We’re always looking to the world around us for inspiration. Biomimicry – developing scientific solutions inspired by nature – has helped us create stain-resistant technology that replicates the beading effect when water hits the surface of a leaf , as well as water-resistant paints that take their cue from the feathers on a duck’s back. These tough, ‘superhydrophobic’ finishes extend the decorating cycle by years, saving customers money and reducing their impact on the environment in the process.

The power of technology

Digital technology has become an integral part of the painting process, bringing in-depth insight and clever solutions together to make people’s lives easier. Thanks to our revolutionary Visualizer app, customers can get help choosing the right colour by seeing it in real-time on their wall.and Paint Specifier apps have made the lives of professionals easier, and we’ve recently developed a free digital plug-in palette tool to bring the vision of architects and interior designers to life for clients. Our in-house experts work tirelessly to ensure the power of paint really works to make a positive change across homes.

range, designed to reflect twice as much light as standard emulsion. This makes small spaces look bigger and brighter, which means less energy is required to light homes – reducing bills by up to 20% in some cases, too!

Community outreach

All that unwanted paint lurking in sheds around the country doesn’t go to waste. Our Community RePaint initiative helps collect unused paint and donate it to the charities, families and individuals who need it most, while our Let’s Colour projects support communities around the globe, helping transform neglected spaces and bring colour to people’s lives.
