\n

We recently featured the latest version of Dulux’s tablet or phone-based colour-picking app, aimed at home users. Now a comparable app has been produced for professionals.<\/p>\n

Architects, designers and specifiers can use the new app to research and create a full coatings specification from a mobile device following the launch of a new app from Dulux owners AkzoNobel. <\/p>\n

The Design app allows users to develop a bespoke technical specification in a matter of minutes by offering a choice of filters at each stage of the decision process.<\/p>\n

These filters include the type of construction material, geographical location of project and durability requirements. They offer both liquid and powder coating options, color choices and finished look.<\/p>\n

AkzoNobel say they realize it is time-consuming going through color cards, and then checking that products meet the necessary requirements of durability, toughness and weathering,<\/p>\n

The new app short-circuits the whole process, but without any compromises to the level of detail that a specification can demand. <\/p>\n

Users can find full data sheets, test reports and property characteristics for each paint range and finish. The app also lets users check real-life examples of projects where their selected products have been used.<\/p>\n

As well as showcasing the company\u2019s complete range of colors and finishes \u2013 including metallic \u2013 the app also allows users to color match. Simply upload a photograph of your chosen color (the blue of a swimming pool for example) and the app instantly searches for the closest matches. Chosen colors can then be built into a personalized color card.<\/p>\n

The Design app can be downloaded here <\/a>from the app store.<\/p>\n
