The government construction sector includes the development and maintenance of infrastructure funded by the government and used by the public.
Government construction projects include highways, roads, railways, bridges, mass transit such as airports, courts and correctional facilities, water and waste management networks, power generation and transmission, telecommunications and hazardous waste storage.
Specific sector requirements include high-performance protective coatings for metal and concrete, anti-graffiti products, long-lasting exterior colours and anti-carbonation coatings.
Dulux has supported specifiers and contractors in the government sector across Australia and New Zealand for more than 100 years. Our solutions – including specifications for tilt slab walls, metal structures, vibrant paint colours and more – are used for various government projects.
Dulux products are designed to meet the highest quality standards. Our team’s extensive knowledge and segment experience allow them to provide valued support with specification writing and problem-solving.
