Project Challenge
EQT Exeter needed a full refresh of a large, outdated manufacturing space.
The facility’s walls and ceilings were coated in layers of dirty, peeling old paint, making the environment dark, worn, and unsuitable for showcasing the state-of-the-art equipment scheduled for installation.
A major obstacle was ensuring any new coating would properly adhere to the aging surfaces without requiring full removal of the old system — saving time and cost.
Project Solution
RJ Forbes partnered with Sherwin-Williams to develop a custom coating system designed to:
- Bond securely to the existing cleaned surfaces.
- Brighten and modernize the environment with a clean, professional finish.
- Enhance the look and feel of the space to match the cutting-edge equipment and future operations.
Through careful surface preparation, expert application, and close coordination with the client, RJ Forbes delivered a transformed facility — on time, within budget, and ready for the next era of manufacturing excellence.
