Duron, Inc

Duron, Inc. recently introduced Supreme, a revolutionary interior latex paint for new-home builders, which is specifically designed for spray and backroll applications. According to the J.D. Power and Associates 2000 New-Home Builder Customer Satisfaction StudySM, quality of workmanship/materials is a major factor in overall new-home owner customer satisfaction. Specifically, paint/drywall is one of the largest areas of concern to the new-home buyer. To better equip new-home builders with a solution to satisfy their customers, Duron has formulated Supreme with state-of-the-art raw materials which are designed to improve the quality, performance and appearance of latex paints.

Both homeowners and professionals will like Supreme's high-quality sheen uniformity, which reduces the appearance of drywall seams on ceilings and "waviness" in the drywall on high-entrance foyerways. And, because Supreme is formulated for improved dry hiding, homeowners will appreciate the resulting smooth on-wall appearance.

Other features and benefits of Supreme include: good spatter resistance for roller or spray/backroll applications; easy roller touch-up and excellent cold-weather touch-up; and good wet hiding, which enables increased coverage rates compared to conventional builder flats.

Supreme is just one of the many quality products Duron offers as part of its Builder Partnership Program. The Builder Partnership Program also includes generous cost-saving programs, free design services, special employee discounts and valued homeowner incentives.

Based in Beltsville, Md., Duron is the nation's third-largest paint manufacturer with company-owned stores. Duron has more than 280 Duron Paints & Wallcoverings stores and more than 160 authorized Duron Paints distributors east of the Mississippi River.

"In addition to our sales force that concentrates on the professional painting contractor, we have a sales force dedicated to meeting the needs of new-home builders. Duron offers a complete program of products and services designed specifically for the new-home construction market, keeping in mind the individual needs of the consumer, the professional painter and the new-home builder."
