The PainterCraft Trust

The Trust was established over 50 years ago by Lewis Berger and since that time has continued to provide business management training to recently qualified trades persons.

Since then, it’s helped hundreds of young industry potentials gain the knowledge to run their own companies - and lift standards of the whole industry while they do so.

These programmes are fully endorsed and supported by the Master Painters New Zealand Association Inc.

How Is It Funded

The Trust is fully funded by Dulux through the industry support and use of its range of products. It is unique within the building related Trades in New Zealand as an industry-based training programme. Dulux understands that tomorrow’s leaders need to be nurtured today. And that’s why they’ve proudly supported the Paintercraft Trust since its inception.
