Updated Jun 15, 2025 | Posted May 15, 2025 | Featured industry news, Industry | 0 comments

Two leading painting and decorating brands have joined forces in an exciting partnership that will see exclusive products, star-studded demos and special offers.

Leading decorating and DIY specialist Leyland has been named as CT1’s Official Painting & Decorating Partner for 2025.

Manufactured by C-TEC, CT1 successfully bonds metals, glass mirrors, wood and polystyrene, and also provides unique adhesion on virtually any material in most applications without the need for additional fixings.

As part of the agreement, Leyland and CT1 will also join forces for a dual-branded stand at The Painting & Decorating Show later in the year, while a series of product demonstrations are planned in stores throughout the year.

High-profile decorating influencers are due to make appearances, including Paint Warrior, Kris Fox Devos and Jen The Decorator. The trio have a combined social media following of more than 1.5 million.

Naivasha Elworthy, Head of Marketing at Leyland, said: “We are proud to embark on this new partnership with CT1.

“We have enjoyed a strong relationship with CT1 and the wider C-TEC team for some time but this formalised collaboration will allow us to offer Leyland customers additional value and exclusive hands-on experiences.

“We’re also particularly excited about sharing a stand at the Painting & Decorating Show in November, which will allow us to demonstrate our relationship to tens of thousands of professional tradespeople.”

CT1’s full range of sealant and adhesive solutions are on sale across Leyland’s 35 stores in London, including the brand’s newly launched premium hybrid sealant and adhesive MORSEAL, which has been designed for budget-conscious tradespeople who need reliable performance.

FC1 – CT1’s ultimate all-in-one filler and caulk – is also available at Leyland in exclusive 380ml cartridges, offering professional painters and decorators better value for money.

Rachael Anderson, Media Manager at CT1, said: “This partnership brings together two of the most respected names in painting and decorating.

“CT1 and Leyland both stand for quality, innovation and expertise so it’s a natural fit. We’re looking forward to a packed schedule of collaborative events throughout the year.”

Leyland’s stores can be found in prominent locations across London, stocking a comprehensive range of thousands of products across all departments, including paint and decorating essentials, building materials, electrical fittings, tools and plumbing equipment.
