Healthcare Solutions

Managing the complexity of the coating requirements for your facilities can be quite challenging. Hospitals, Assisted Living facilities and Retirement Homes are some of the most difficult buildings to maintain. For new projects, you need a partner that understands construction scheduling and can support your internal Project Managers as they work with Architects, Designers, General Contractors and Painters. Renovations require strong coordination with your GC’s and Painting Contractors, as delays in the return to service affect revenue. With maintenance painting, you need products that don’t disrupt your operations and keep your employees and patients comfortable. In short, you need a partner who understands this industry.
