Since 1946 Resene has forged a reputation of excellence and quality in manufacturing products designed to meet the demanding standards of architectural and building industry professionals.
Working hard to stay ahead of market trends, Resene has an international reputation as a leader in paint research and technology. We also focus on environmentally preferable products. To reinforce this position we
joined the Environmental Choice Programme in 1996. Resene’s commitment to this programme and our continuous development process to reduce the risk our products may present to our customers will ensure that safer, professional quality paint is available to everyone. In 2004, we launched the Resene PaintWise paint and paint recovery programme to recycle and reuse unwanted paint and packaging, for applications such as covering graffiti and community projects.
The Resene product range includes paint and specialist coatings for residential and commercial buildings. We have everything from ceiling paint and wall paint, to roof paints, non-skid finishes, wood stains and oils and textures.
When it comes to colour, paint is all about fashion. Colours come and go with changing trends. Flexibility in colours, colour tools and colour scheme development is paramount. The Resene Total Colour System offers this flexibility through a wide range of colour services, including the unique The Range fashion fandeck updated annually showcasing the latest fashion colours. Each fandeck comes complete with complementary colour suggestions to make developing a colour scheme easier.
Sophisticated tinting technology enables Resene to produce durable colour options that remain true to colour long after they have been applied.
Interlinked systems for decorative and high performance coatings allow you to achieve the same spectrum of colours in a wide variety of products.
