The Wall

    • Thank you to everyone who joined the Winsor & Newton Townhall Takeover yesterday to celebrate the launch of our new Shopify website, and well done again to all the project team who worked so hard to make it happen.

      We had great fun at the ‘sip and paint’ event in the London hub afterwards. Thank you to everyone who helped to organise it and for everyone who stayed around to try out the new products and show off their creative skills. We’d love to see the finished results of your work!

    • a great event Helly and team, thank you! I was super impressed with the artwork created….lots of talent!

    • It’s so great to see teams celebrating our successes. We don’t do it enough!

    • Looks like a lot of fun! And great work the website too. We are having our next Brand Engagement session next week….and getting to play with Liquitex Bio-Based Heavy Acrylic – really looking forward to it.

    We are excited to share with you that our new 1L Fine acrylic launched!

    It’s a long journey to develop this range, lots of sourcing and test done since Y2023, we tried several package such as pump bottle, sachet, and finally chosed transparent bucket with handle to benefit outdoor street art.

    The 30 colours in this range are labelled with CLP classification, and 26 colours of them pass EN71-3 test, it will be great if you are also interested in it!

    And the new range will replace our existing 1kg size, which will greatly improve the margin, and hope to catch up more sales with its competitive price!

    • as you say… a long journey, but now we are there, and looking forward to taking a little market share back from the competition as a result of this improved packaging.

    Do you know “Vis ma Vie” program ?  a fun & cool opportunity to discover another job inside Colart ! 

    Estelle Wang (procurement team) has chosen to experiment the “brand director” job last week : She came in Paris, in Charbonnel shop 1 full day and discovered that this is a polyvalent position, for instance helping Virginie Marugan, our shop responsible, to prepare the web orders (+40% = more orders to prepare each day) for our dear Charbonnel clients! 

    She also discovered the “back office” of the Brand team : ensuring that all visible actions are nourrishing brand preferency and converting more artists to choose our brands : marketing means more than “advertising and events” : it also means working on quality, profitability, hand in hand with others services like factory, procurement, sales…

    Thanks HR to give this opportunity ! Vis Ma Vie comes from a reality show on French TV few years ago. Another one would be good to try : “Patron Incognito” : each GLT member participates to experiment “on field” experience !

    Great to see agility in action!

    A special thanks to Tim DePack for leading this and seen here getting the endcap assets together to send out for the LB Flashe test we have this Autumn with Michaels. Tim has ploughed on when many would have given up!

    It has taken the effort of many, including Tim, Clemence and the Brand team, Carlos, Elba and the DC4 team for relabeling all the jars and tubes, Duane on asset creation, Annie on hand painting the point of sale, Amanda for all the coordination, Aaron and Margherita for getting this over the line with the team at Michaels. Well done to all of you, and anyone else who touched this project – a huge thank you too.

    • Bravo to all North American team ! You Rock !
      We cannot wait to see it in Michaels Stores and looking forward for the results 🙂
      Many Thanks to your strong engagement to deploy this fabulous product Flashe, loved by the greatest artists such as Niki de St Phalle, Vasarely … Some american artists already appreciate Flashe, but this new step will allow more to discover and love this unic paint !
      Great Job Tim, and thanks all for your commitment to make this happen : Michel, Sarah, Steve and your teams !
      Also a special thanks to the factory for their agility (Loic, Bruno !), and for EU markets that are step by step moving with a worldwide label to make LB become more global !

    • Super!! Flashe in US! Thank you very much the US team!

    • Finally! Exciting to see that this project has come to life after several (or maybe 100+) initial meeting conversations. Well done to all involved!

    • Steve, this deserves a bigger article for Colart news…… what a great project to build LB in NA 👍

    • Great North American initiative, shwoing agility in managing the “whole” Colart unique brands portfolio….Well done Tim, Michel, Steve and Sarah! Good luck in this LB Flashe range test with Michael’s! Such a development, if confirmed, could change the brand presence and even more global performance ! “Félicitations” ! You are real “Flashers”…

    • well done to pitbull Tim and team!

    NYC designer Aaron Potts has used Winsor & Newton Designers Gouache as the starting point for sketching all of his creations. Last Friday, we sponsored and attended the NY Men\’s Day show, where his new collection featured one of these gouache sketches! This collaboration presents an opportunity to see \”Through the Eyes of the Artist\” in a unique way by highlighting the connection between fashion and art. Maria G. captured some great footage and images you\’ll see in-feed on the WN Instagram page this week. We captured social content on-site and were able to post the live coverage on Winsor & Newton\’s Instagram Stories last Friday, thanks to Serena managing global social! Great job Erin on coordinating and we\’re looking forward to seeing the partnership continue!
