Swap a can of food for a FREE Resene testpot!

Bring a can of food into your local Resene owned ColorShop and you can swap it for a Resene testpot (60-80ml).

Resene will then donate all the food brought in to The Salvation Army local foodbanks and other community foodbanks.

By adding a little more colour to your life you can also help those in need. When you donate a can of food you'll save on your testpot purchase (save up to $5.80 on an 80ml testpot) while also helping provide disadvantaged Kiwis with food parcels when they need them most.

Hi,
Thank you all so much for all the amazing furniture donations we received in the last couple of weeks. Unfortunately, we are struggling with moving them around as we have an old lightweight flat trolley that isn’t designed for what we put it through.
