New brand of Harris Paints introduced

Harris Paints has introduced a new lower costing quick-drying brand of paint, which it says is the first commercial paint specially designed for the trade sector from a regional manufacturer.

According to a press release, the new brand, which includes water-based, interior/ exterior products, Pro Speed Cover, was unveiled to contractors, maintenance managers and key industry professionals recently at an event held at the Herdmanston Lodge.

Additionally, the release said, Harris Paints is offering customers a “Buy 5 Get 1 Free” special offer on all products in this range until April 30.

According to the release Harris Paints Senior Vice President of Sales and Marketing Orlando Vazquez said the major motivation behind the development of the new brand was calls from contractors for “a lower cost alternative that can reduce their overheads substantially and help drive their business while delivering serviceable performance…”

The release said Trade Sales Manager for Harris Paints Guyana Garfield Manasseh stated that while the new paints are being offered at a great price, they have some exceptional characteristics that can result in considerable savings.

The Pro Speed Cover range is expected to play a vital but selective role in Guyana’s commercial paint market, particularly on projects that need frequent repainting or in secondary areas that do not demand the very highest quality finishes. Key sectors include maintenance of commercial properties; new construction; property sales and residential and office rental markets, the release said.
