Resistance Paint
Resistance Matt Emulsion is one of our most-loved paint finishes. It brings together a beautifully deep, ultra-matt finish, a hard-wearing quality that keeps rooms looking their best, and a rich, considered palette of colours ~ mixed to order to ensure no waste. Here’s a closer look at what makes this premium finish unique.
Resistance takes its name from its resilience, but it’s the finish people notice first. With an exceptionally low 1% sheen, it’s one of the flattest, mattest paints available, and that ultra-flat quality is exactly what gives it such depth. Colour reads beautifully across a matt surface ~ soft, almost velvety ~ drawing the eye into the shade rather than reflecting the light back. The result is a refined, contemporary finish that feels considered in any room.
A truly matt finish is often the hardest to keep looking its best. This is where Resistance comes into its own. Independently tested and awarded a Class 1 Scrubbable rating ~ the highest of its kind ~ it’s designed to be wiped and washed clean while holding on to its beautiful, even, matt finish.
That resilience makes it well suited to the rooms you live in most: hallways, living rooms, kitchens and family spaces, where a paint needs to look immaculate and stay that way. The result is a premium, richly matt look with a finish that’s easy to care for.
There’s a real depth to a Resistance shade, and much of it comes down to pigment. Each colour is richly pigmented for a full, true finish ~ the kind of colour that feels saturated and considered on the wall. Across our curated palette of over
300 shades, you’ll find everything from soft, liveable neutrals to deep, characterful darks, each one designed to work beautifully on its own and alongside the rest of the collection.
And because we design our paints to sit hand in hand with our wallpapers and murals, it’s easy to find a Resistance shade that perfectly partners a design you love ~ for a scheme that feels effortlessly coordinated.
Our colour lets your walls breathe, allowing moisture vapour to pass through the surface, supporting a fresher-feeling home.
There’s a considered approach behind every tin, too. Rather than sitting pre-mixed on a shelf, each Resistance colour is mixed to order when you place your order. The benefit is a practical one: you get the colour you want, freshly made, which ensures no waste.
It’s all part of a more thoughtful way of making paint ~ one that’s water-based and low in odour, with a lower VOC level than oil-based alternatives.
From a calming bedroom to a hard-working hallway, our Resistance paint finish is a durable way to elevate your space. Its depth of colour suits a cosy, enveloping space beautifully, while its resilient finish makes it a natural choice for the busiest rooms in the home ~ the ones that see the most day-to-day life.
