Hamilton has been manufacturing decorating tools since 1746, becoming the brand that denotes quality, knowledge and expertise.
With our 250 years of experience, developing and refining our products, and by combining innovation and new technology we have created a portfolio of the finest brushes, rollers, tools and accessories in the market.
The only choice for professional decorators
Each tool is made using the finest materials and goes through stringent quality control procedures, resulting in excellent standards. We pride ourselves on our close working relationship with professional painters and decorators and regularly consult with our ‘Decorators Panel’ to develop new and improved products.
We believe it’s important to continually consult and communicate with end-users in order to respond to their needs. In addition, we work alongside colleges in a dedicated programme to offer support, guidance and tips to apprentices.
All of our products are made using first-class production techniques, including the very latest in testing facilities with a dedicated team of technical experts.
We review our manufacturing processes regularly and make improvements on an ongoing basis to ensure top quality products.
With experience brings the desire to constantly innovate and evolve, and we are always striving to bring fresh ideas to the market.
We take on board feedback from end-users to improve our products year-on-year.
Health and Safety Reminders
As with any trade, it’s a good idea to brush up on your knowledge before tackling a new project – whether you’re a newcomer to the industry or a seasoned veteran. This is especially true for jobs that might form a smaller part of your repertoire. So, before you get started on your next project, big or small, it’s important to prepare relevant safety checks.
Between 2021–2022, 30% of workplace injuries were from slips, trips or falls, 18% were caused by handling heavy goods and 8% came from high falls. That’s a staggering 333,350 preventable injuries. And many of these injuries pose a higher risk to painters and decorators due to the nature of the job.

The decorating centre will celebrate their grand opening at 10.30am on Friday 9th September, with Patrick O’Reilly, former owner of the Paintz store, attending to cut the ribbon.
Testing every stroke
Paint has changed, and Hamilton knows that the tools you use must continue to change along with it.
A reputation for quality and innovation for the 250+ year old name in decorating tools means that continuously testing and reviewing their much-loved products is paramount to ensuring they deliver with today’s paints.
Why test?
A reputation that spans over 250 years can only be built upon expertise, confidence and continuous development. Hamilton have always been advocates of strenuous product testing, in automated laboratory settings, as well as in the hands of real users.
Innovation in paints and coatings, even more so in recent years, can mean that decorating tools that have stood the test of time, may need to be updated, alongside ongoing new product innovation.
Hamilton for the multi-skilled trades
Following months of extensive research into today’s users, Hamilton discovered that a large sector of multi-skilled trades are looking for a range of high quality decorating tools to be more readily available to them.
With 90% naming Hamilton as an aspirational, trusted brand – the market-leading name in decorating tools decided to make their dreams a reality…
… Hamilton For the Trade.
