HMG adds touch of colour to iconic Library

16 December 2014

Manchester, UK-based HMG Paints Ltd is proud to have supplied paint for the refurbishment of the city’s iconic Central Library.

The Grade II listed building, built between 1930 and 1934, began a £48M four year renovation project in 2010 and reopened to the public in March 2014. The Library now offers the public access to extensive library collections, regional and national photograph and film archives, a state-of-the-art digital media lounge and the magnificent central Wolfson Reading Room.

HMG Paints, the UK’s largest independent, industrial coatings manufacturer, supplied Broadley Group with more than 600lit of paint, providing a clean, classic yet modern finish to the interiors of the iconic building.

A variety of high specification coatings, selected from HMG Paints’ Decorative Range, were supplied. Contract matt emulsion was supplied providing the interior with a clean, high opacity finish. A waterborne LMP acrylic system was also used for its excellent adhesion properties and as a greener alternative to solvent-based paints.
