At Polyvine, we have always believed that the best results come from combining high-performance products with genuine trade expertise. That’s why we are incredibly excited to announce we are partnering with the UK Sprayers Association (UKSA), a growing organisation dedicated to supporting professional sprayers across the UK.
As specialists in water-based varnishes, decorative finishes and protective coatings, we know how important education, craftsmanship and community are within the trade. The UKSA shares those same values, making this partnership a natural fit for both organisations.
The UK Sprayers Association was created to fill an important gap within the spraying industry, providing dedicated support, training and connection for professionals working in uPVC spraying, joinery spraying, kitchen spraying and specialist coatings.
Founded by industry professional James Wildish of XOX Coatings, the UKSA was built from real-world trade experience and a passion for raising standards throughout the industry. But the association is about much more than one individual. It is a community-led organisation designed to give sprayers the tools, resources and support they need to succeed.
The UKSA provides members with access to:
Most importantly, the UKSA is grounded in the day-to-day realities of the trade. It’s an organisation shaped by sprayers themselves, helping to professionalise the industry while supporting the next generation of skilled professionals.
At Polyvine, innovation in water-based technology has always been at the heart of what we do. For over 35 years, we have developed high-performance water-based varnishes and coatings designed to deliver exceptional durability, clarity and ease of use for trade professionals.
As demand for environmentally responsible coatings continues to grow, more sprayers are making the move towards modern water-based systems. However, many professionals are still looking for guidance, confidence and practical advice when it comes to spraying water-based varnishes successfully.
That’s where this partnership becomes particularly exciting.
Working alongside the UKSA and James Wildish, we will be creating practical resources and educational content focused on spraying water-based varnishes and coatings. Through demonstrations, videos and technical guidance, we’ll be showing just how easy, reliable and effective modern water-based systems can be when used correctly.
From achieving flawless finishes on kitchens and joinery to understanding spray techniques, preparation and application, our goal is to help sprayers feel confident using advanced water-based products in their everyday work.
The spraying industry continues to evolve rapidly, with growing demand for high-quality finishes across kitchens, furniture, interiors, uPVC and bespoke joinery projects. Alongside that growth comes the need for better training, stronger professional networks and trusted technical support.
The work being done by the UKSA is helping to raise standards throughout the sector by encouraging professionalism, knowledge-sharing and continuous learning.
As a family-run British manufacturer with nearly 40 years of experience supplying the decorating trade, these are values we strongly believe in. At Polyvine, we are passionate about supporting skilled professionals with both high-quality products and expert guidance.
By partnering with the UKSA, we hope to play a small part in helping sprayers grow their businesses, expand their knowledge and deliver even better finishes for their customers.
What makes this collaboration particularly exciting is the shared mindset between Polyvine and the UKSA:
We are proud to be associated with an organisation that genuinely cares about the future of professional spraying and the people working within it.
This is only the beginning of what we hope will become a long and valuable partnership. Over the coming months, we’ll be working together on educational content, spraying resources, demonstrations and practical advice designed specifically for the professional spraying community.
We’re excited to share more soon and look forward to supporting UK sprayers together with the UK Sprayers Association.
To everyone already involved in the UKSA community, we’re excited to be part of the journey.
