Lick Pro Signs Exclusive Deal with Screwfix
Screwfix, the omnichannel retailer, is now listing LickPro paints. Decorating professionals can purchase the range of high-quality paints in 127 trend-led colours via the Screwfix app or online at screwfix.com.
Ideal for the professional painter and decorator, LickPro emulsion paints are exclusive to Screwfix. For the trade, they go the distance providing excellent opacity and low splatter with minimal clean up. Pigment-rich with high opacity, LickPro can be used on walls and ceilings, and it can be applied with a brush, roller, or sprayed to give a professional finish every time.
Screwfix will list the paints in both 2.5 litre and 5 litre tins, with 127 trend-led colours to choose from in both matt and eggshell finishes. Within this range, and unique to Screwfix for the trade customer, are 10 new trade colours made up of British Standard and RAL colours, perfect for commercial projects.
LickPro is recommended by the trade, with Simon Radestock, Proprietor and Director at SMR Refurbishments, commenting: “If given a choice it's LickPro every time; for ease of use, an exceptional finish and my clients love the colours.”
In addition to the professional benefits, the new LickPro range will continue Screwfix’s commitment to sustainability. The paints are low odour, low VOC (volatile organic compound) and water-based for an improved indoor air-quality.
Lick and Screwfix will also pioneer new, innovative technology to reduce waste. Once an order is placed on the Screwfix app or via Screwfix.com, the specific paint order will be sent to the master paint mixer, Lick 01. In an industry first, Lick is the first home decor company to combine technology and engineering in its manufacturing process and reduce unnecessary waste generated by unsold, pre-mixed paint.
Jack Wallace, Marketing Director at Screwfix, commented: “This exclusive partnership with LickPro is part of our ongoing commitment to ensure we offer our customers the best quality products. The LickPro paints leave you with a high-quality finish, have great sustainability credentials and the convenience of 127 colours, available next day*.
“Together with LickPro, we’re making it easier for painters and decorators to get their jobs done quickly, affordably, and right first time.”
Lick’s CEO & Co-Founder Lucas London commented: “LickPro has partnered with Screwfix to give decorators the opportunity to seamlessly get everything they need in one place. By making LickPro paint available at Screwfix, it simplifies the sourcing process for decorators who can purchase decorative paint here for the first time.
“The partnership also means that decorators will have readily available access to a high-quality paint that their clients love. LickPro paint has been purposefully designed with today’s professional decorators in mind and we’re confident they will benefit from easy access to our high-quality range of sustainable paint.”
