Benalla’s Haymes Paints celebrates award

Winner: Haymes Paints chief executive officer Rod Walton with the company’s award for “Most Satisfied Customers — House Paint”.

Haymes Paint Shop Benalla is celebrating after its brand claimed Canstar Blue’s “Most Satisfied Customers — House Paint” award for 2022.

The award is Haymes’ fifth in a row, rounding out half a decade of excellence for the largest Australian-made-and-owned paint manufacturer.

Haymes Paint topped six of its major competitors in the “House Paint” category.

What’s more, it was the only paint manufacturer to score the maximum five stars across the board for overall satisfaction, durability, ease of application, quality of finish, value for money and variety/range.

Haymes Paint chief executive officer Rod Walton said Australians had spoken.

“And we could not be prouder to be their most trusted and respected paint manufacturer,” Mr Walton said

“To win this award for five years in a row is very humbling, and only made possible by the commitment of the entire Haymes Paint team to strive for excellence in all areas of our business.

“Every member of our team loves what they do and lives by our core values of passion, trust and respect, and are driven by the motivation to continue (to) deliver quality products to all our customers.

“It is pleasing to see that passion reflected so positively on our loyal customers and partners.”

Canstar Blue works alongside market research companies to ask everyday Australians about their experiences with purchased products and services.

The “Most Satisfied Customers” award reflects the views of more than 1600 survey respondents from across the country.

Canstar Blue’s home and lifestyle editor Megan Birot applauded the team at Haymes Paint.

“Aussies continue to rate Haymes Paint the best, which is a great testament to the brand’s commitment to offering a wide range of quality paint products at prices consumers can afford, especially in this volatile market,” Ms Birot said.

“In such a competitive industry, it can certainly be difficult to maintain consistently high customer satisfaction ratings over a long period, which underlines what an achievement this is for Haymes Paint.”

Haymes Paint Shop Benalla store manager Terry Mack applauded the news.

“To see the Haymes Paint products rated so highly by the Australian public for half a decade now is incredibly rewarding,” Mr Mack said.

“At Haymes Paint Shop Benalla, we are so proud to stock quality products that are 100 per cent Australian made and owned for our customers to enjoy.”
