The bold and the beautiful

To celebrate Marsala as Pantone Colour of the Year 2015, Decorative Door Products (DDP) by RegaLead is delighted to announce that this rich, bold hue has been launched as the 26th pre-mixed DoorColour shade, which customers can either spray themselves or purchase a pre-painted door slab via partner-company, Macclesfield-based door specialist, DoorCo.

The DoorColour system is a unique paint formulation designed specifically for use on GRP, ABS and PVC surfaces to allow coating of composite door slabs, cassettes and outer frames with the same material, ensuring colour consistency and improved painting times. Currently 26 premixed colour shades are available from stock with a full range of support materials including colour charts and Konig touch up pens, waxes and sprays. For customers looking to offer a wider range of colour, a ‘mix on demand’ system is available with colour formulae for thousands of shades including the complete range of Farrow and Ball and RAL matches.

Guy Hubble, Joint Managing Director at RegaLead comments on the launch: “The Pantone of the Year is a strong indication of the direction which colour trends will take. It is decided following 12 months of research and debate on colour trends from experts around the world and this has been reflected in previous years’ winners such as Cerulean, Aqua Sky and Radiant Orchid and for 2015, with a bolder shade like Marsala. We’re delighted that, thanks to our relationship with DoorCo, customers who don’t necessarily have the capacity to spray in-house can also offer this colour by purchasing a pre-painted slab directly from stock, so nobody needs miss out.”

Dan Sullivan, Managing Director at DoorCo adds: “We’ve been working with Decorative Door Products by RegaLead for two years this month and whenever we plan a new door design we always consult with their team, including working closely with them on the St Andrews and Gleneagles doors we launched this year. It’s great to partner with a company, who, like DoorCo and like the trend for colour itself, doesn’t stand still. We’re very pleased to offer Marsala to our customers and to continue our longstanding relationship with DDP to the mutual benefit of all involved.”
