ADLER, Austria’s leading manufacturer of varnishes and paints, has expanded its range of water-based paint, offering innovative solutions for a wide variety of painting applications. This range ensures environmentally responsible choices while meeting the highest quality standards in surface preparation and finishing.
Water-based paints have emerged as the smart choice for both professional painters and their clients. These coatings offer numerous benefits, including low emissions, which make them an environmentally friendly choice. Additionally, they pose fewer safety risks and have no unpleasant solvent odours. Unlike traditional paints, the treated rooms can be used immediately after the job is finished, enhancing the convenience for both professionals and clients.
Fundamentally Right for Renovation Projects
Renovation work, especially on old wood surfaces, presents unique challenges. Degraded wood or old paint can often seep into new topcoats, leading to discoloration, while stains from nicotine, water, or grease might create additional issues. To address these, ADLER has developed the Aqua-Isoprimer CT PRO, which uses modern cationic technology to reliably isolate stains and wood components. This primer also guarantees perfect adhesion to the surface. For plastics and metals, the Aqua-Multiprimer PRO offers the ideal solution for rust protection.
From 2026, the Aqua-Isoprimer CT PRO will be known as the Vivido Aqua-Primer ISO CT, and the Aqua-Multiprimer PRO will be renamed Vivido Aqua-Primer Multi. These advancements will continue to provide professionals with effective tools for complex tasks.
Well Filled for Smooth and Even Surfaces
The Vivido Aqua-Filler is the newest addition to ADLER’s water-based range. This opaque primer is designed with a high filler content, making it ideal for filling small cracks and uneven surfaces found on interior doors, wall panels, and ceilings. With rapid drying times and excellent sandability, the Aqua-Filler ensures smooth, even surfaces that are easy to work with. It’s the perfect solution for creating a flawless finish.
Top-Notch Finish: Which Colour Would You Choose?
Once the preparatory work is complete, the final step to achieving a beautiful surface is the application of a high-quality topcoat. ADLER’s Aqua-Nova PRO is a versatile water-based paint available in various colours, including matte or satin gloss finishes. This durable paint guarantees a long-lasting, colour-stable, and non-yellowing surface. The Vivido Aqua-Finish Nova, which replaces Aqua-Nova PRO in the future, will offer the same reliability and aesthetic quality.
Alternatively, the Vivido Varicolor is a universal paint suitable for both indoor and outdoor use. It can be applied to any surface and in any colour, providing an uncomplicated solution for various projects. For those seeking an ultra-matte finish, ADLER offers Vivido Aqua-Edelmatt, a paint that provides a dull matte, mineral finish. This product is perfect for ceilings, walls, furniture, radiators, and even visible ventilation and cable ducts, providing a uniform look across diverse surfaces.
Efficiency and Performance for Professionals
The performance and ease of application of ADLER’s water-based paints are crucial for professional painters. ADLER’s product line is designed to make the work easier for painters, ensuring that each product in the range works seamlessly together. With excellent flow, high stability, and short drying times, these paints can be applied universally, including with a spray gun for large surfaces.
Alexander Ringler, Division Manager for Painters & Paint Trade at ADLER, emphasised the importance of efficiency in every painting company. “Our goal is to make ADLER customers’ work easier with our products,” he said. “Efficiency is a key success factor for every painting company. With our paints, we offer reliable problem-solvers for every application – even for particularly challenging tasks.”
