Dunn-Edwards Unveils New Name - Gloss - Look
On January 1, 2010, Dunn-Edwards unveiled brand new packaging, new names, and new gloss levels for their premium paints and primers. Now all of Dunn-Edwards’ premium interior latex paints are under one product family name called SUPREMA® and the premium exterior latex paints are called EVERSHIELD®. To better differentiate their premium status, all SUPREMA and EVERSHIELD products were re-packaged in metallic gold labels. In addition, the gloss levels of the SUPREMA and EVERSHIELD paints were adjusted to show a well-defined progression from Flat to Gloss to better align with accepted industry standards set by the Master Painters Institute (MPI).

Meanwhile, Dunn-Edwards has also streamlined their primer names to be more descriptive of the substrate they’re used for and the job they perform. The very best primers are now distinguished by the word “Premium” in their product name, ie: EZ-PRIME Premium, ULTRA-GRIP Premium. They were also re-packaged in white labels with matching metallic gold bands to signify how they complement the SUPREMA and EVERSHIELD finishes.

These enhancements will aid customers in easily differentiating between Dunn-Edwards’ various product lines. Positive feedback from customers shows that these changes have made their lives easier and are part of what makes Dunn-Edwards the #1 Choice of Painting Professionals.   Click here to learn more.
