The first storage system built specifically for professional painters.

The Purdy Painter's Storage Box is built around how decorators actually work. Two XL storage boxes hold everything from power tools to multiple tins of paint. Dedicated brush storage bars keep bristles in shape. The wet brush and roller bin means you're not getting paint on everything else in transit.

IP65 rated for water and dust resistance. Replaceable all-terrain 9" wheels. Extension pole holders as standard.

Tested by Time. Zac Winter - Monarch Elite, 2021.

"I remember being told some Purdy brushes had lasted over ten years, which really impressed me. When I started my own business, one of my first investments was three Monarch XL brushes, and one of them is still used on almost every job today."

Zac started decorating during lockdown and built his business around quality preparation and a high-standard finish. Purdy has been part of his kit from day one.
