The villas ... used only the best products.

Al Gurg Leigh's Paints supplied both interior and exterior paints for the 271 villas project.

"The promoters of the mammoth 271-villa housing project at Al Warkaa chose only the best in construction materials," says Philip Mathew, general manager for Dubai-based Al Gurg Leigh's Paints. "Unsurprisingly, in terms of their choice of both exterior and interior paints, they opted for the best - Oasis Paints, a product of Al Gurg Leigh's Paints.''

He continues: "This was a choice made mainly due to Al Gurg Leigh's Paints track record as a manufacturer of superior quality exterior and interior paints in a variety of colour options supported with all the necessary warranties. Another important factor that helped Al Gurg Leigh's Paints get nominated for the project is the fact that the paints are all tailor-made to withstand the harsh weather conditions of the region.

"The project is a direct reflection of Al Gurg Leigh's Paints ability to ensure that all products and services match the highest international quality standards to meet customer requirements. This commitment has seen the company constantly improving its existing products process and services to develop newer products and coatings for the future''

The company began operations in 1989 when the Easa Saleh Al Gurg group tied up with the renowned W&J Leigh & Company of the UK to form Al Gurg Leigh's Paints to bring quality paints to the region. Since then, the company has established itself well in the paints business, manufacturing a wide range of industrial, marine and decorative coatings.

The company has completed numerous major painting contracts throughout the UAE. A new state-of-the art factory and laboratory facility, fully equipped with the latest R&D and testing equipment ensures Al Gurg Leigh's Paints' continuing success in the market. The company currently offers the following product ranges:
