smart coating (paint) in Sri Lanka.
Graphenstone is a leading ecological paint formulated in Spain that combines lime and graphene technology in a unique formula, which is called Graphenstone Innovative Technology. Lime, a natural and completely artisanal material, is complemented by graphene materials that improve its strength and flexibility. This perfect blend of tradition, innovation and technology enable the creation of premium, environmental-friendly green paints of the highest quality, with a longer life and lower maintenance, which translates into considerable savings.
DIMO Executive Director Vijitha Bandara, who also oversees the retail business of the group, commented, “DIMO’s strategic approach has continually focused on adding sustainable, innovative products and services to our expanding product portfolio. Introducing the first and only smart coating (paint) in Sri Lanka manifests DIMO’s unwavering commitment towards sustainability through our business approach. This also reflects our continuous efforts for fuelling dreams and aspirations of the communities we serve, by facilitating environmental sustainability. Together with the perfect partner Graphenstone, the world’s most Green Certified brand, we introduce this innovative paint to Sri Lanka.”
DIMO’s Graphenstone range consists of Exterior and Interior coatings. Under the Interior range, DIMO has introduced Ecosphere and GrafClean Ag+ to the local market. In the Exterior range, DIMO has introduced Biosphere while in the Undercoating segment, Primer Plus has been introduced with high Ph lime-based primer, free of micro-plastics which absorbs CO2.
Graphenstone GrafClean Ag+ is a premium interior paint with Low Sheen finish, formulated with silver ion (Ag+), providing anti-microbial properties (Bacteria, Fungai and Covid-19 virus) that maintain the surface protection up to two years, is free of toxic substances and is highly breathable. This is ideally-suited for people suffering from chemical intolerance and respiratory issues, including asthma. Graphenstone is highly recommended for indoor enclosures, schools, hospitals, nurseries and hotels.
Graphenstone Ecosphere and Biosphere are the most advanced solutions of ecological and natural paint in the market. A mere 45 litres of Graphenstone paint removes up to 14.40kg of CO2, an amount equivalent to what is absorbed by an adult tree weighing 250kg. While improving the breathability of the home, it also enhances hardness and strength of the walls and living spaces. It also improves air quality of indoor environments, prevents mould/fungi, bacteria and virus growth.
