Northern Paints and Coatings
Hello and welcome to Northern Paints and Coatings, a company dedicated to supplying the highest quality materials possible – We supply paint, coatings and protective materials suitable for use on all domestic and commercial buildings, bridges, marine and underground structures.
We supply Snowcem Plus exterior masonry paints, a mineral paint which contains white Portland cement which will withstand the abuse of the most demanding environments in the country. You should, we believe, be able to apply paint in the harshest environments and get the finish that you want. With the peace of mind that the paint will withstand years of abuse and still look good.
Why Snowcem Plus
We realised that Acrylic and polymer-based paints, although easy to apply are flawed, they don’t allow walls to breath, they generally fail quickly becoming delaminated from the surface they have been applied to, peeling flaking and blistering due to moisture becoming trapped behind the paint. We decided that a new approach was required, giving access to a quality mineral-based paint to the public and trade for their building projects. Snowcem Plus Paint is a mineral based paint suitable for application to all kinds of exterior masonry and stone surfaces from brickwork to pebbledash and sheet concrete.
It is our mission to improve people’s access to quality, environmentally friendly exterior painting products at a reasonable cost. Allowing customers to enhance the appearance of their homes in the knowledge that the product they have used is not only safe for the environment but will protect the building from our often-damp climatic conditions and also last for years without any degradation to the decorative finish.
We also know that there isn’t enough support for people wishing to find out more about exterior paint products and which is the best product they should choose for their particular application. Northern Paints and Coatings want to address this through exceptional customer service and technical advice.
In the past, finding out technical information could be a challenge. You either had to find a qualified technician or order technical documents from manufacturers. But thanks to our approach to customer services you can get all the information you need directly from our website or you can call one of our experts who will advise on the most suitable exterior paint options for a particular application.
What Makes Snowcem So Special?
Snowcem Plus is unique to the UK market, it’s is the only cement based mineral paint available in the UK, Suitable for application to a wide range of masonry surfaces. It’s easy to apply, Will handle the worst of the elements and because Snowcem has been specifically developed to be tough yet breathable it will protect a building for years.
Snowcem also has the added advantage of being eco-friendly. Despite its ability to withstand extreme environments, Snowcem contains no plastics or solvents and is safe for animals.
Snowcem is waterproof, meaning that it can prevent driving rain from permeating masonry. But it’s also resistant to flaking and peeling too: in other words, the exterior of your property will look great for years to come.
In our view, the reasons for using Snowcem are extensive and is why we focus our business around it. No other product offers so many benefits in a single package, especially for people who live and work in extreme weather environments.
The final reason we love Snowcem so much is the fact that you don’t have to wait for the exterior surface of your building to dry before applying it – something hard to achieve for many property owners. You can apply Snowcem to damp masonry, and the paint will dry and harden over time, creating a robust, waterproof barrier which prevents any mould or algae incursions into your property.
Of course, Snowcem isn’t the only material we supply, but it is, in our view, among the best exterior paints that you can buy.
