RPC joins growing paints market

The Richard Pieris Group is the latest entrant to the growing but competitive paints market, trading prices and quality products with the the likes of CIC, Lankem, Multilac, Nippolac Asian Paints and others.

Mahesh Herath, Business Development Manager for the category, said Arpico has introduced a full array of paints under the brand name Arpicolour ranging from emulsions, enamels, weather-care , wood-care, under coats and anti corrosives and in a multitude of colours. The paints were initially launched in Colombo district, but due to the huge success they received during the following few weeks of the launch, are now being distributed island wide via Arpico Supercentres and general hardware outlets, he said.

“In order to deliver a combination of value adding factors such as competitive prices, colour mixing facilities, computerised colour selection, etc in all island wide paint outlets, we have gone into extensive distribution,” he said.
