Dulux Trade Commercial Colour Services

Choosing colour for commercial spaces isn’t just about making a space look good – it’s about creating environments that support the people who live, work, learn or recover in them.

Every project brings its own design challenges, regulatory considerations, and user needs.

That’s why our Dulux Trade Commercial Colour Services team partners with architects, designers, specifiers and building owners to deliver bespoke colour schemes that are not only visually impactful, but also functional, inclusive and evidence-informed.

Thought Leadership, CPDs & Training

We don’t just provide colour – we share knowledge, lead conversations, and support the industry in designing better spaces for all. Our Commercial Colour Services team offers a wide range of learning opportunities to support specifiers, architects, designers and contractors. These include:

RIBA accredited CPDs

Beyond training, we actively contribute to the wider industry conversation. From keynote talks to national exhibitions, our team regularly takes part in roundtables, events and panels – including forums such as Education Estates, The National Care Show, and specialist inclusive design summits.

We bring together technical insight, lived experience, and sector-specific understanding to inform better outcomes – and help shape the future of colour in the built environment.

Inclusive Design Support

We believe colour plays a vital role in creating spaces that are not only functional and beautiful, but truly inclusive. Our team is trained in inclusive design best practice and stays up to date with the latest guidance – including Building Regulations Approved Document M, BS 8300-2:2018, and emerging frameworks such as PAS 6463: Design for the Mind.

From dementia-inclusive palettes to neurodiversity-informed zoning and contrast strategies, we tailor every scheme to support the needs of the people who will use the space.

Our consultants bring together technical knowledge, sector-specific insight, and lived experience to help you design with confidence – whether you’re creating a sensory-friendly classroom, a welcoming care setting, or a workplace that supports focus and wellbeing.
