The services the professionals enjoy

The complete Resene project development service covers all facets of the coatings process. Resene can draw on a range of staff from technical experts through to colour consultants to provide whatever assistance you require.

While some projects require the full-service approach where the Resene representative is involved in all steps, it is also common for building owners and managers to manage the project more closely and run their own tenders. In these situations, owners, managers and specifiers are welcome to seek Resene’s advice on suitable coatings and application to assist with their new build or refurbishment programmes.

The level of Resene’s involvement in any specific project is up to you. If preferred, Resene will work alongside your chosen agent. For those specifying Resene products on commercial or large scale residential work, all these services are free, therefore you can use Resene services as much or as little as you like.
