Berger Paints has launched its new Vintage finish, an exterior textured paint, which is aimed at new construction projects in the UAE and the region.
With its unique engraved finish, the Vintage collection is not just attractive to look at, but it also guarantees protection from outside elements for a period of 10 years.
“The new Vintage finish is the first of several new products and concepts planned to meet the ever-increasing expectations of the UAE market,” said Suresh Mohandas, CEO of Berger Paints Emirates.
Unveiling the paint at a launch ceremony in the emirate recently, chairman of Ports, Customs and Free Zone Sultan Ahmed bin Sulayem said: “With the dramatic pace of development and construction taking place in Dubai and the Emirates, we are very fortunate to have a number of quality-driven paint suppliers in the UAE, supplying specialist paint for exterior surfaces.”
The aim of the company is to grow and expand its market share, said Mohandas and added: “There is a growing need for new fashionable finishes for exteriors and our offer comes with the backing of Berger’s hallmark research and development.”
According to company officials, this year revenues so far have grown over 25 per cent and they believe that the launch of Vintage will help the company extend revenue growth potential and benefit from the current real estate and construction boom.
Berger Paints Emirates has its manufacturing unit in Al Quoz Industrial Estate and services a large market including the UAE, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Oman, Africa, Afghanistan and the CIS countries of Armenia, Khazakstan, Uzbekistan and Azerbaijan.
