3 HISTORY OF TAUBMANS One of the oldest paint brands in the Australian market, Taubmans has been painting Australian homes for over 110 years. In 2007 PPG Industries acquired the Taubmans brand. Back in the early 1900s, George Taubman built the company on a foundation of technical superiority. Taubmans new owners, PPG, also have a long history of applying global technologies to gain a competitive edge. Since its inception a century ago, Taubmans has grown to become a major player in the Australian architectural coatings market. It is also responsible for launching well known and innovative consumer paint brands such as Endure with Nanoguard, Living Proof Silk with Teflon, Easycoat with Microban and All Weather with Dirt Shedding Technology. In the future, PPG and Taubmans are committed to continual growth by satisfying consumer needs through innovation. BRINGING INNOVATION TO THE SURFACE PPG Architectural Coatings, part of PPG Industries, touches the lives of many in ways seen and unseen. As a colour pioneer we re enhancing the beauty and comfort of homes on the inside and the outside. Not only are we right at home working with leading designers and builders, but we ve been partnering with the automotive industry for years. PPG is also responsible for protective coatings for use in the most demanding of projects, such as bridges, pipelines, marine vessels and even roller coasters. From automotive to aerospace, building materials to consumer products, marine and industrial coatings, we bring innovation to the surface. ECOLOGICAL SOLUTIONS At PPG, we understand that sustainability is a driving design factor for building and design projects nationwide. We recognise that our paints and stains play an important role in sustainable building and we re committed to making environmentally progressive products. PPG was one of the first pioneers in the paint industry to develop new performance standards for zero and low-voc (Volatile Organic Compound) products. Many of our paints have zero or low-voc contents, allowing our products to meet a variety of governmental and third-party regulations nationwide. With Ecological Solutions from PPG, painting sustainably does not mean sacrificing coating performance. Everyone who uses our products, from architects and commercial building owners, to home builders and home owners, can confidently strive to find an ecological paint solution by choosing PPG.

4 CASE STUDY MCDONALD JONES HOMES BUILDING AN ENDURING PARTNERSHIP McDonald Jones Homes, founded by Bill McDonald, is in the business of building their customer s dreams; no small task and one achieved only on a strong foundation of lasting relationships. These relationships span from the building company itself down to the subcontractor and tradesperson, and of course between the homebuilder and each and every customer. Founded in 1987, the business employs 250 people full time across four sites, and relies on an additional 2000 subcontractors and tradespeople to deliver their product into customer s hands. With this team, many of whom have worked for the company for years, McDonald Jones Homes has built more than 6000 homes throughout New South Wales, Queensland and the Australian Capital Territory. The builder aims to build homes that stand the test of time, and Bill McDonald has infused his business with his passion for helping ordinary Australians achieve their home-owning dreams. A multiple award winner, McDonald Jones Homes is now the largest builder in New South Wales, offering home and house-and-land packages to consumers. Ensuring quality in all aspects of the building process, a hallmark of McDonald Jones Homes, means choosing the right partners. To this end, Bill McDonald only brings into the fold partners who can help the company achieve these ambitions. He is highly selective about the commercial alliances that are formed, understanding that these relationships profoundly affect the end product. The team at McDonald Jones Homes chose Taubmans as their only paint supplier. This is because they could deliver on the promise that once homeowners select the colour scheme for their brand-new, architecturally designed home, the paintwork will be the best available in the Australian market. In our business, having a great reputation and delivering a quality product is extremely important, says Nathan Thurston, Marketing Manager for McDonald Jones Homes. We value our relationship with Taubmans because their expertise inspires confidence and their market-leading product allows us to exceed the expectations of our clients.

5 Our tradespeople, painters and interior designers, consider Taubmans products to offer advantages that are above its competitors, which means that our homes have a point of difference. The builder uses Taubmans Endure paint because their team believes the product is technically superior. Taubmans Endure contains Nanoguard Technology, which creates a strong protective barrier that shields the paint surface from dirt and grease, preventing it from degrading. The result is a longer life for the product, and better performance with wipe and scrub tests, when compared to competitor products. As a key point of difference in the market, this has a marketing benefit for the McDonald Jones Homes. Apart from the end consumer benefits, the team at McDonald Jones Homes has been vocal in praising Taubmans as project partners across their product range, describing them as part of the family. Taubmans and McDonald Jones Homes have been working productively together now for six years, and Taubmans level of service in this time has been a key factor in the longevity of the relationship. During the partnership, the two companies have collaborated to deliver thousands of homes. Taubmans takes their provision of personalised service very seriously, with representatives operating by region under the leadership of a senior manager. All involved are keen to tackle challenges as they arise, repeatedly resolving them in ways that ultimately strengthen the partnership. Through this key relationship, and its other commercial partnerships, McDonald Jones Homes is committed to making the home building journey enjoyable for its clients. It provides, as part of their service, design experts to assist in bringing their homes delightful and highly desirable interiors to life. In fact, clients are invited to consult with McDonald Jones Homes professionals on important colour and design decisions at the My Choice Colour Studios, where Taubmans paint product and range are on display, along with other selected products. By partnering with the best in the industry, McDonald Jones Homes has been able to build a company that will endure. It has done this by delivering a product that, itself, will endure, meeting the needs of its clients and their families both today and into the future.

6 CASE STUDY TAUBMANS ENDURE In any development project there are many considerations paramount to the success of the project outcome, one of which is materials and finishes. While colour selection is key to interior schemes, the quality of surface finishes such as paints, is also crucial in the final result. Without incorporating a high quality paint, even the best-designed project, whether it be a retail space or luxury residential abode, can be let down in the long term. It is for this reason that the technical properties and attributes of the finishes need to be considered just as thoroughly as any aesthetics. Paints are generally benchmarked based on four key attributes including the opacity of the paint, the ease and quality of application, how it performs under maintenance such as washing, scrubbing and resisting stains, and finally the gloss levels. The miens of a high quality paint is the balance of all of these attributes, as without even just one, the suitability of the paint for certain applications becomes nullified. As each attribute has an impact on the other, achieving a formulation of paint that delivers outstanding results across the board provides quite a challenge. One such paint that has been successfully engineered to provide superior results is Taubmans Endure Interior. The formulation of the paint has been engineered with Nanoguard technology, meaning that it is comprised of both small and large particles that form a strong protective barrier to protect walls and make it easier when it comes to washing and scrubbing, while retaining a perfect finish. After much deliberation, the National Asthma Council Australia has deemed Taubmans to be the only paint brand acceptable to be inducted into their Sensitive Choice Program. The program was formed in 2006 to help the significant proportion of the Australian population with allergies and respiratory issues to identify products that are better suited to them and their needs. Combined with its stain resistance properties, Taubmans Endure is also able to withstand a high level of abrasion when scrubbed, while the appearance of the paint finish remains impeccable when washed in soapy solution. This is ideal for a range of environments from education, retail and hospitality through to housing as the paint finishes need to endure throughout high levels of traffic and the subsequent regular cleaning that occurs. When referring to the opacity of paint and how well it hides a dark background, the application properties need to be considered simultaneously. The measure of how well and effortlessly the paint is applied to the wall, along with

7 whether the paint dries easily and without brush marks, can affect the apparent opacity. This means that even if a paint has a high level opacity, but rates poorly when it comes to application, the finished paint job may still look patchy and poorly finished. The formulation of the Taubmans Endure paint boasts excellent opacity levels, well above other products on the market, along with exceptional application properties making it the ideal choice when specifying paint for a range of projects. In projects where outstanding results are essential, clients and builders alike have often specified Taubmans Endure. One such project was The Spirit on the Avenue residential development in Darwin. This was the introduction of resort-style living to the Territory s housing market and set new standards for residential amenity. Taubmans Endure was the only paint that satisfied the needs for a generous warranty, while providing a range of finishes from matt to gloss. Mould on interior surfaces is often the bane of the tropical home owner s existence, so the advanced technology of the paint provides a strong protective barrier that helps to inhibit the growth of moulds and mildew. Another instance where Taubmans was specified as the sole paint supplier was for McDonald Jones Homes, as they saw it as imperative to have partners who could deliver on promises. A multiple award winner, McDonald Jones Homes is now the largest residential builder in New South Wales, offering home and house-and-land packages to consumers. Being highly selective about the commercial alliances formed with the business, the team at McDonald Jones Homes chose Taubmans for the paintwork for their brand-new, architecturally designed homes as they believe the product to be technically superior and the best available in the Australian market. Nathan Thurston, Marketing Manager for McDonald Jones Homes explains Our tradespeople, painters and interior designers consider Taubmans products to offer advantages that are above its competitors, which means that our homes have a point of difference. With the selection of paint being crucial in the success of a project outcome in both the short and long term future, it makes sense to look for a product that has been specifically engineered to endure. Taubmans Endure allows you to paint with confidence and provides the solution with its easy application, increased durability and the fact that it is tintable to 5762 Taubmans colours.

8 COLOUR CUTTING TO THE CORE OF COLOUR The impact of colour on the way we act and feel cannot be underestimated and we understand the huge influence it holds over residential environments, especially where the emotional wellbeing of residents is concerned and how it can make a house a home. Whether you require bespoke colour schemes, brushouts or general colour advice, Taubmans can provide the ideas and answers you need. MAKING THE RIGHT COLOUR CHOICE Choosing colours for any building is a process which requires both knowledge and inspiration. The range of colours and services available from Taubmans are designed to inspire and support in the creation of the perfect colour scheme. As colour can dramatically affect the look and feel of a room, we know it s important to make the right choice. Certain colours can evoke certain moods and feelings, and by careful selection, designers can use colour to subtly influence moods. For example, the warm side of the spectrum provides happy lively colours reds, oranges and yellows whilst the cool side gives us calming, restful colours greens, blues and purples.
