Rodo.
A British painting and decorating tools manufacturer producing paint rollers, brushes, roller trays, masking tape, sealant guns, filling knives and decorating accessories for professional painters, decorators and building contractors across the UK.
About Rodo
Rodo Ltd is a British manufacturer of painting and decorating tools and accessories, producing the consumable and semi-consumable kit that professional painters and decorators use every day. The Rodo range covers paint roller sleeves and frames, paint brushes, roller trays, masking tape, dust sheets, filling knives, scrapers and sealant application tools, the everyday working kit of the UK decorating trade.
In the professional decorating market, Rodo sits as a practical, reliable trade range at competitive pricing, the kind of tools painting contractors buy in volume and replace regularly on commercial contracts. The Rodo Contractor range delivers the performance professional decorators need without the premium pricing of the top-end decorator brush and roller brands.
The Rodo range also covers the sealant and caulking accessories that decorators use alongside their painting work, including sealant guns, sealant smoothing tools and caulking accessories for neat sealant lines at junctions before and after painting. A clean, well-tooled sealant line is a hallmark of professional finish quality, and the right tools make a real difference to the result.

Good to Know
Synthetic paint brush filaments are now as good as natural bristle for water-based paints, and often better, because synthetic filaments don’t absorb water and soften during use the way natural bristle does. Keep natural bristle for oil-based paints and varnishes, where its superior paint release is still an advantage. If your decorators are using natural bristle brushes for emulsion and satinwood, switching to a good quality Rodo synthetic will improve their results.
