Britain's best source of building product and construction news

Paint manufacturer, Jotun Paints (Europe) Ltd’s Jotaplast high performance coating has been specified for the BALTIC Centre for Contemporary Art in Gateshead, Tyne & Wear. The company told Building Products magazine the news came as Jotun was signed up as a BALTIC B.Partner sponsor following the decision to establish its Decorative Division in Newcastle upon Tyne. However, rather than provide a financial donation Jotun has agreed to give several thousands of pounds worth of paint in-kind to the arts’ centre over the coming year for on-going repair and refurbishment work. The move initially sees Jotun supplying direct from its Flixborough factory over 500 litres of Jotaplast high quality, impact resistant, one-coat white matt.
