Pure Flat Emulsion: This is their flattest paint (2% sheen level), ideal for ceilings and walls where you don’t want any sheen. This finish delivers a soft, chalky effect. The high pigmentation gives a profound depth of colour. This finish is also micro-porous, to allow the fabric of a building to breathe. Environmentally-friendly with minimal VOCs and very low odour.

This finish is completely washable with excellent scuff and stain resistance. Ideal for high traffic areas such as hallways, kitchens and living spaces. Environmentally-friendly with minimal VOCs and very low odour.
Architects’ Eggshell: A popular, self priming paint choice for both walls and interior/exterior woodwork. It provides a subtle sheen (10-20%) and is easy to maintain. It is especially suitable for bathrooms where condensation may be problematic. It is also suitable for furniture, metalwork and radiators. Environmentally-friendly with minimal VOCs and very low odour.
Architects’ Satinwood: A low-maintenance and durable option with a satin finish (30-35% sheen), perfect for all interior and exterior woodwork, in particular all household joinery, skirting boards, doors and window frames including kitchen cupboards, wooden furniture and front doors. Self-priming.
