Dulux Trade Durable Kitchen & Bathroom Eggshell has been launched to provide decorators with a single product that delivers long-lasting performance in two of the most demanding rooms in the home. The mould-resistant coating combines durability, stain resistance and a low-sheen eggshell finish to ensure a long-lasting result that withstands frequent cleaning, moisture and everyday wear.   

Kitchens and bathrooms are among the most commonly renovated interior spaces in UK homes, and 29% of UK households experience mould in their homes frequently or occasionally. However, high moisture levels and frequent cleaning make the kitchen and bathroom two of the most challenging areas for decorators as they are prone to surfactant leaching, streaking and patchiness as condensation forms and dries.   

Rather than choosing between overlapping or specialist products, Dulux Trade Durable Kitchen & Bathroom Eggshell provides professionals with one eggshell solution that is designed for high-humidity environments. It delivers five core benefits:  

Mould resistance: Dulux Trade Durable Kitchen & Bathroom Eggshell is mould resistant, helping to inhibit mould growth in areas where moisture can linger.  

Resistance to the impact of condensation: Dulux Trade Durable Kitchen & Bathroom Eggshell is formulated to help minimise the effects of humidity and frequent cleaning. It does not burnish when repeatedly wiped and is resistant to surface leaching, supporting a more even, consistent finish over time  

The right sheen level: High sheen finishes can exaggerate marks and surface blemishes, but Dulux Trade Durable Kitchen & Bathroom Eggshell offers a softer, lower sheen that means decorators can achieve a more refined, contemporary look without compromising on durability and cleanability.

Durability: In busy spaces, spills are inevitable. Dulux Trade Durable Kitchen & Bathroom Eggshell includes stain resistant technology that has been proven against common household stains including coffee, soy sauce, red wine and black oil. With Scrub Class 1 durability, it is designed to withstand repeated cleaning without compromising the finish, helping walls look better for longer. It requires a seven-day curing period for full durability.   

Colour choice: Dulux Trade Durable Kitchen & Bathroom Eggshell is available in over 14,000 Dulux Trade colours, as well as the full Dulux Heritage colour range and RAL and NCS shades. It can also be colour matched to designer shades, helping decorators meet any customer brief.  

To demonstrate that Dulux Trade Durable Kitchen & Bathroom Eggshell genuinely delivers these benefits, it has achieved the Dulux Trade Tested & Approved seal of approval. Decorators who trialled the product as part of the testing process praised the application and finish. One said, “I would use this product with full confidence, and I am certain to achieve an excellent result with it”. Others said, “hardly any splatter, easy to roll on and good coverage” and “high opacity and easy to apply”. Another decorator concluded that it would become their “go-to paint for kitchens and bathrooms”.   

With feedback like this, professionals can trust Dulux Trade Durable Kitchen & Bathroom Eggshell to deliver long-lasting results in a home’s most demanding rooms. With coverage up to 17m² per litre and a two-hour recoat time, decorators can also work efficiently, helping to keep projects moving and reduce downtime.
