When painters spread community colors

In a vibrant display of skill and community spirit, Vietnam's painting contractors recently showcased their talents in the 'Maxilite - Golden Roller' competition. Organized by Maxilite, a brand under Dulux from AkzoNobel, this event provided a much-needed platform for nearly 600 professionals from across the country to demonstrate their expertise and pride in their craft. The competition, which spanned two months, not only fostered a sense of camaraderie but also highlighted the high standards and aesthetic aspirations within the painting trade.

The Maxilite - Golden Roller Cup is the fruit of a journey of effort, the joy of 13 years in the profession.

Beyond the thrill of competition and the substantial prize money exceeding 200 million VND, the event carried a deeper purpose. The ultimate winner, Nguyễn Văn Minh Kha, a seasoned contractor with over 13 years of experience, exemplified the competition's commitment to social responsibility. Inspired by his victory and the support from AkzoNobel, Kha dedicated his efforts to renovating the Nhơn Ái Primary School in his hometown of Cần Thơ.

Before now, I quietly dedicated myself to the profession, overcoming the difficult times of the construction industry. On every road, thank you AkzoNobel for always supporting, as well as bringing a meaningful competition for colleagues in the profession to learn from each other, ensuring the quality of all projects when using Maxilite paint from Dulux.

This initiative, part of Maxilite's broader 'Paint the Future' campaign, saw Kha and representatives from AkzoNobel transform the school's classrooms. The fresh coats of paint and vibrant colors breathed new life into the learning environment, creating a safer, brighter, and more inspiring space for the young students. This heartwarming collaboration underscores how professional skills, when combined with a spirit of giving back, can create lasting positive impacts within the community, reflecting a new generation of painters who are not just skilled professionals but also agents of positive change.

This year's 'Paint the Future' campaign, with the companionship of the 'Maxilite - Golden Roller' champion, not only gains more contributions in experience and professional capacity but also helps spread the beauty for the community of a new generation of painting contractors, helping to create an inspiring and meaningful new look for the school.
