Hospitality Establishments

In an industry defined by exceptional customer service, extended downtimes due to painting and constant touch-ups are not an option.

SCUFF-X allows high-traffic corridors, lecture halls, gymnasiums, locker rooms and dormitories to be painted quickly with minimal disruption to student learning and resists scuffs and stains to keep walls looking freshly-painted.

Plus, the low-odour, low-VOC formula contains antimicrobial additives to inhibit the growth of mould and mildew on the surface of the paint film and is CHPS (Collaborative for High Performance Schools) certified, for the most favourable learning environments.

For environments in which patient health is of primary concern, maintaining clean, unsoiled walls is key.

SCUFF-X resists scuffing and staining, and the proprietary formula contains antimicrobial additives to inhibit the growth of mould and mildew on the surface of the paint film, making it an ideal choice for busy waiting areas, exam rooms and laboratories in hospitals, clinics, nursing homes and therapeutic facilities.

SCUFF-X can be applied in occupied spaces that can be quickly returned to service for minimal disruption to business.

Its proprietary scuff-resistant formula will continue to resist scuffs and stains long after other paints have failed, potentially yielding lower maintenance costs over time and influencing the bottom line.
