Managing the complexity of the coating requirements for your facilities can be quite challenging. Hospitals,
Assisted Living facilities and Retirement Homes are some of the most difficult buildings to maintain. For
new projects, you need a partner that understands construction scheduling and can support your internal
Project Managers as they work with Architects, Designers, General Contractors and Painters. Renovations
require strong coordination with your GC’s and Painting Contractors, as delays in the return to service affect
revenue. With maintenance painting, you need products that don’t disrupt your operations and keep your
employees and patients comfortable. In short, you need a partner who understands this industry.
Glidden Professional is uniquely positioned
to be your best choice in helping you manage your coating
requirements across all of your healthcare facilities
