Paint it green for World Environment Day

14 Jun 2023

Go green with Resene for World Environment Day this June. It’s easy to help Mother Nature – simply buy a green Resene testpot in June and Resene will donate $1 to Trees That Count. This will help the organisation grow a brighter future for New Zealand and plant extra native trees this year!  

Trees That Count runs the country's only marketplace which provides a place for anyone to fund or gift native trees, with a mission to plant millions more native trees throughout New Zealand.

This support is matched with planters throughout the country who are restoring, and growing precious wildlife corridors or pockets of native forest, turning small projects into mighty ones. For more information, visit www.treesthatcount.co.nz.

The offer above applies to all Resene green 60 mL testpots (excludes metallic and wood stains) purchased by retail customers between 1-30 June 2023 at Resene owned ColorShops (NZ only).  

We’ve compiled some creative home DIY projects that are a perfect way to incorporate green Resene paints:
