Delighted to see us featured in The Herald today. It's particularly rewarding to see our new product manufactured here at our factory in Glasgow receiving this coverage.

DURO Mould-Resist Paint was developed in response to the growing problem of damp and mould in housing. This is becoming particularly topical in Scotland, with new legislation coming into force on 6 October introducing statutory timescales for landlords to investigate damp and mould and begin necessary remedial work.

We're very clear that paint isn't a cure for an underlying damp problem, the cause must be identified and properly dealt with first. DURO has been developed to provide a high-performance, mould-resistant finish following that process.
