⚡ At a Glance
  • Finish Quality: Smooth, non-reflective matt finish that helps disguise surface imperfections
  • Best for: Busy family rooms, hallways and areas that need regular cleaning
  • Not ideal for: Exterior surfaces or rooms where a gloss finish is required

Washable matt emulsion is formulated for durability and easy cleaning. Coverage and a non-reflective finish suit interior walls and ceilings.


Easy to keep clean – thanks to a washable matt formulation

Formulation emphasises wipeability and stain resistance, allowing marks to be removed with a damp cloth without affecting the finish. The emulsion chemistry balances durability with a low sheen to avoid showing cleaning marks.

Walls can be refreshed quickly after spills or scuffs, reducing the need for frequent repainting. Ideal for households where messes are a routine occurrence.

Durable protection – with a tough, stain-resistant composition

Paint is described as highly tough and durable, engineered to withstand everyday marks and scuffs. Stain-resistant properties help prevent common household substances from penetrating the surface.

Surfaces retain a cared-for appearance longer, cutting down on touch-ups. High-traffic areas stay presentable even with regular cleaning.

Natural matt look – with a smooth, non-reflective emulsion

Matt emulsion creates a smooth, rich finish that reduces light reflection and helps hide minor surface flaws. The colour selection is drawn from current interior design trends for a contemporary aesthetic.

Walls look modern and even, with imperfections less noticeable than with higher-sheen paints. Antique Cream and other curated colours suit neutral, calming schemes.
