Who's Behind Hunter Protective Coatings
Real experience.
Real solutions for the Hunter.
G'day, I'm Paul Pritchett.
I've worked across the construction industry for over 35 years — from the tools and supervision through to Tier 1, 2 and 3 project management, development and business operations.
After decades on construction sites, I saw the same issues over and over: damage, failed temporary protection, mess, waste and builders carrying the pressure at handover. I believed there had to be a better way.
That's why I started Hunter Protective Coatings — to bring a proven, peelable surface protection system to Newcastle, Port Stephens and the Hunter region.

Why I Started This Business
I saw the same problems on sites over and over — damage, waste, mess and protection systems that didn't perform. I believed there had to be a cleaner, smarter way.
A Smarter, Cleaner Way
Construction creates huge amounts of waste. Our peelable protection reduces landfill, saves time and money, and helps deliver cleaner sites and better handovers.
Why The Hunter
After living in the Bay for over 20 years, I wanted to bring this proven protection system to Newcastle, Port Stephens and the Hunter region — our builders deserve a better solution.
