PANDEMIC IMPACT ON BUSINESS CORPORATIONS

As the 2020 pandemic broke out, the majority of business corporations except for front line workers were required to transition their offices into their homes. Now, that some believe, we are on the tail end of the pandemic, the majority of the same business corporations are facing the challenge of returning employees back into their offices. Multiple approaches are considered to leverage office setting productivity, some companies increase employee incentives while others implement the hybrid platform. On the other hand, Envoy Survey indicated that 61% of companies are making changes to their physical workplace to drive in-office productivity.

Homeglazer.com article suggests that facility management should reach out to a local commercial painter every 2-3 years. As facility management is anticipating return to work dates, it is important that 2 to 3 weeks are allocated for the paint vendor because transformations don’t just happen, they happen with intention.

TAILORED COLOR SELECTION INCREASES PRODUCTIVITY

Speaking of intention, a tailored color palette selection is critical for re-painting an office space. To better prepare for that, consider the following: space utilization, mood, function and layout of every room. Color of the paint will either motivate or dismiss an individual from being productive in a space. To make the right decision for the office, a paint supplier or vendor can arrange for a color consultant to make color decisions seamless. Since employees will be spending up to 40 hours a week in an office setting it is imperative that the considered colors are environmentally friendly and are CPSC Certified.

Here in the Bay Area , our buildings face a unique set of challenges. From the persistent fog and moisture in the city to the strong sun in the valleys, our properties are in a constant battle with the elements. It’s easy to look at the resulting peeling paint, a dirty facade, or a small spot of rust as a cosmetic problem—something to "clean up" when you have the time or budget. At Commercial Painting Inc., we’ve seen what happens when "upkeep" is put off. That small rust spot becomes a major corrosion problem. That peeling paint lets moisture in, damaging the material underneath. What was a simple maintenance task becomes a costly, large-scale repair. This is why we believe maintenance matters. We're passionate about making the Bay Area prettier through paint, but we know "pretty" doesn't last unless it's built on a strong foundation.
