RIBA CPD Showcase

Paints, varnishes and protective treatments

Wood preservatives, hygienic wall finishes and aesthetic coatings for metal roofing and cladding are all featured here, in a subject area that is as rich in cutting-edge technology and expertise as it is in variety.
Seminar, by Euramax Corby Ltd
Euramax’s CPD consists of examining the aesthetic coatings that can enhance a building on a facade or roof. The CPD is very hands-on, examining various colours and finishes and how they can improve the aesthetics of a building. Euramax provides samples that can examined and discussed in an open forum. The seminar also discusses the benefits of coating metal and how it can enhance the life expectancy of the building. In addition it also examines some reference projects Euramax has worked on, which illustrate how a building can be enhanced by pre-coating metal.

Euramax is an experienced metal coatings supplier to the construction market, specialising in aesthetic coatings for roofing and cladding. It operates within its own niche market as many of the coatings it offers are specifically developed by Euramax in conjunction with its own raw materials suppliers.
