Nawtint®
the real alternative to cement render and similar exterior finishes
for
housing
and construction.
A number of top home builders have chosen Nawtint
as their preferred exterior treatment for their
new display homes at the new HomeWorld
Display Village now taking shape at Kellyville.
Developed in
Australia, Nawtint is based on the proven Nawkaw brick and block
coloring materials created by Nawkaw
Corporation used extensively in Canada, the
US and Australia since the 1980’s. The colors will not fade
and will not deteriorate.
The HomeWorld builders
who have chosen Nawtint for their all important display homes are;
Beechwood, Allworth, Felton Constructions, Jandson and Mirvac. More
builders are expected to choose Nawtint as homes are added to the
village.
According to
Tony Watling, managing director Nawkaw Australia, home buyers are
attracted to the rendered exterior finish that allows a choice of
new colors rather than traditional face brick colors. The home
builders who have chosen Nawtint know that it is an attractive alternative.
The beauty of
Nawtint is that it gives the attractive appearance of rendering
without the ongoing maintenance that may be required with cement
render finishes. Nawtint is color-fast and won’t fade and
the most maintenance it will require is to simply wash away grime
with a garden hose.
Nawtint is only
applied by specially trained applicators whereas cement render can
be applied by a variety of independent trades. The color of render
is liable to change and some projects have experienced surface cracking.
Nawkaw has combined
with Austral
Bricks to create the Mediterranean Collection
from a combination of Nawtint and Austral clay bricks. The result
is a beautiful range of durable, fashion colors for the homes of
Australia.
“The colors
are reminiscent of the subtle colors of Italy and include Santa
Cruz Leon, Blanche Marbella, Corsica Tenerife, La Palma Majorca,
San Remo Cabrera and Canaria Ibiza. They can be seen in display
walls at Austral Bricks display centres.
“Apart
from its durability and no maintenance advantages the Nawtint finish
is more economical and we offer a twenty five year limited warranty available
on the color finish supplied and applied by Nawtint. The ingredients
used are water resistant and will not fade due to UV radiation from
the sun” Tony Watling said.
Right now home
buyers can see three completed homes featuring the Nawtint exterior
finish at the new HomeWorld IV display village opposite the old
village Windsor Road, Kellyville.
