Kuala Lumpur, 14 October 2024 – In its bid to cement itself as the leading paint brand in the market, Jotun has recently unveiled its property maintenance program ensuring buildings not only remain robust but also maintain aesthetically pleasing exteriors. This program covers a comprehensive set of procedures from assessing and identifying defects, providing solutions, to finally offering maintenance tips for the best care. Through this program, Jotun aims to reduce higher costs in the long run with smart maintenance and at the same time, preserving a property’s look.
As part of this program, one of the services offered is strategic repainting. Through this service with Jotun, the marketability of properties can be enhanced, ensuring its relevance with market trends and appeals. A well-maintained façade, whether through maintaining the building’s unique identity or a vibrant colour refresh, is crucial for boosting occupancy rates and potentially increasing rental and resale values. While Jotun understands each property owner’s concerns and that identifying defects at challenging height comes with risks, their latest innovation is set to address these gaps, meticulously and comprehensively.
With that, Jotun is proud to introduce the Jotun Eagle Eye Building Inspection, their latest innovative service as part of this program. With this advanced drone technology, this service is set to redefine property maintenance, tackling persistent issues which property owners face. The drone’s features include advance thermal imaging and high-definition cameras enabling them to identify structural irregularities and hidden defects that typically go unnoticed. These tools also provide a detailed analysis of the property’s structure including moisture patterns, insulation inconsistencies and other concealed issues which are crucial to address and to prevent them from aggravating.
Another key benefit of the Jotun Eagle Eye Drone Building Inspection service is that it eliminates the risks of human inspections at high altitudes, thus significantly enhancing safety of workers. Plus, greater accessibility can be achieved with this service as drones navigate complex structures with precision, reaching the toughest spots with ease. Not to mention, property owners can enjoy significant cost savings by avoiding the need for expensive scaffolding, giving them the maximum value on investment when opting with this program by Jotun.
While the highlight of this program is the enhancement of pre-application diagnostics through the Eagle Eye Drone Building Inspection, Jotun’s services are end-to-end which includes during and post-application measures as well. Upon inspection and analysis with the drone, colour consultations are provided prior to the use of proper paint materials is confirmed. Once completed, the paintwork will be inspected and monitored before a maintenance manual is handed over to the property owners for their remaining care.
Jotun is currently undertaking a project with Sunway Group, the first project utilising the Eagle Eye Drone to perform thermal image scanning on the external façade walls of the Sunway Resort Hotel, Sunway Pyramid Mall, Sunway Pyramid Hotel, and Sunway CLIO Hotel, showcasing Jotun’s commitment to ensuring the safety and aesthetic upkeep of iconic structures.
Jason Chin Teck Seng, Senior General Manager of Sunway Pyramid, Sunway Giza and Sunway Square commented, “At Sunway, our dedication to excellence is reflected in every detail of our properties, from the design and construction to the ongoing maintenance and guest experience. We are committed to upholding the highest standards in every aspect of our operations. This partnership with Jotun enables us to reinforce this commitment by leveraging their advanced technology and thorough approach. Their Eagle Eye Drone service provides us with invaluable insights into the condition of our buildings, ensuring that we preserve both the appearance and functionality for our guests.”
Through this program, Jotun not only offers a thorough assessment of properties but is also ready to provide the best aftercare solutions in the form of its superior range of exterior paints. For exterior applications, the Jotashield Infinity, which was launched earlier this year, stands as the hero product. Encompassing features from previous paints, this latest innovation is proven to be the best protection for exterior walls with its game-changing technology that promises best durability, colour performance and dirt resistance.
