Serving up quality paints to the food sector

Putting aside the aesthetics for a moment, the first thing any restaurant or food outlet needs to consider is hygiene. Kitchens need to be pristine environments that prevent bacteria and mould from taking hold. Paints with in-built antibacterial protection such as Fleetwood Bio Tec are the answer.

Cooking up colour palettes

Once the practicalities are taken care of, the next thing to consider is colour. From bright colours in fast-food outlets to subtle, elegant tones in a fine dining restaurant, the colours you choose have a big influence on your customers. With years of experience and expertise, our in-house design experts are here to help you create a bespoke colour palette that not only makes your diners feel special but dovetails in with your existing brand identity too. Those colour choices also come with practical advantages such as stain resistance that combats the inevitable spills without the paint surface degrading.

Fleetwood Trade Vinyl Matt Washable is an excellent choice for these areas, delivering robust protection against knocks and scrapes and a smooth, low-sheen finish that’s visually pleasing too.

Case Study - Dunnes Stores

Working with public-accessed commercial outlets such as shops, restaurants and food stores brings its own set of challenges. The top priority has to be hygiene, while aesthetics come a close second, ensuring visitors feel comfortable, safe, and enamoured by their surroundings. These were just some of the issues facing Fleetwood Paints when we were approached by Dunnes Stores, one of Ireland’s leading food retail outlets. As well as focusing on coatings that offered a high level of cleanliness, coatings also had to be robust enough to cope with a very high footfall.
