Frequently Asked Questions

PaintPlus is the paint with a conscience. For more than 25 years, we’ve been innovating and making premium paints right here in New Zealand. We began with a simple mission: to take an industry that was traditionally dirty and make it cleaner — creating products that perform beautifully while protecting people and the planet. What started with two founders determined to create positive change has grown into New Zealand’s most progressive paint company, where sustainability and performance go hand in hand.

Because sustainability has been at the heart of PaintPlus since day one. We’ve always believed that if a paint isn’t environmentally responsible — if it can’t do a beautiful job without harm — we won’t make it. That’s why every PaintPlus product is Eco Choice Aotearoa certified, and why we’ve partnered with Toitū since 2007 to actively measure and reduce our carbon footprint.
We go further by using every possible recycling and upcycling process, reducing waste, and operating as a Toitū Climate Positive organisation — offsetting more than 100% of our emissions. And we’re the only paint company in the world with full ecolabelling for every product and Enviro-Mark Bronze certification for our environmental management system. Choosing PaintPlus means choosing real, measurable impact — paint that performs brilliantly while protecting people and the planet.

On our website you’ll find key information — from product guides and colour ranges to technical and safety data sheets — that makes it easy to choose the right PaintPlus system for your project. Simply match your surface and space (interior, exterior, timber, plaster, concrete, or steel) with the product information provided. And if you’re unsure, our team is always available to guide you with expert, tailored advice.

We offer curated colour ranges and a full spectrum of finishes — flat, matte, satin, semi-gloss, and gloss.
To make choosing easier, we’ve introduced peel-and-stick swatches: 100% accurate, mess-free, and designed so you can see how a colour looks in different lights and spaces, without the hassle of test pots.

PaintPlus & Timbakote are available through selected resellers — you can find your nearest stockist on our Contact Us page and our team is always on hand by phone, email, or contact form for expert advice.
