Autodesk® Revit® Add-ins
Dulux Colour Atlas Revit® Add-in
The Dulux Colour Atlas Add-In for Revit® provides access to over 4,800 Dulux Colours including Decorative, Powder Coatings and Protective Coatings without leaving Revit®. Using the Add-In, surfaces in Revit® can be 'painted', automatically generating data to populate specification schedules. Automating this process makes the painting in Revit® faster, eliminates manual data entry and reduces errors. Version 2.0 now includes the capability to paint 'Split Faces' and paint surfaces within the Family Editor. This features Dulux Colours of New Zealand from pages NZ9 & NZ10 in the World of Colour Series II Atlas only.
Available for Revit® 2015, 2016, 2017 & 2018
DuSpec NZ Paint Specifications Revit® Add-in
The Dulux DuSpec® Add-In for Revit® makes the process of creating detailed paint specifications within a BIM workflow faster than ever before. Using the DuSpec® Add-In, specifiers can interrogate and data-mine their Revit® project materials and apply DuSpec® paint specifications to Revit® Elements. These specifications can be scheduled and exported as both PDFs and Excel datasheets directly from the Add-In, or pushed natively back into Revit® schedules. Available for Revit® 2015, 2016, 2017 & 2018.
Graphisoft® ArchiCAD® Library Container File
Dulux Library Container File
Together with Graphisoft® Australia, we now provide clients with a Dulux Library Container file (.LCF), containing over 4,800 Dulux colours to use in ArchiCAD® 19. The Dulux Colour Atlas can be loaded from this file direct to ArchiCAD® element and object surfaces in the ArchiCAD® 2D & 3D window using the Surface Painter feature in ArchiCAD® 19. Once linked, the file can be searched and specific colours selected, without embedding every colour in the project file. This features Dulux Colours of New Zealand from pages NZ9 & NZ10 in the World of Colour Series II Atlas only.
