Start with the news release 60th station upgraded by Tube Lines from Tube Lines, which we summarised at the time by saying "Queensbury station on the Jubilee line is now the 60th station to be upgraded by Tube Lines since 2003 after reaching practical completion this week.". Several months prior to that, we featured the news release Dulux Trade Ecosure for luxury and social housing from Dulux Trade: "Dulux Trade Ecosure has been used to decorate 144 private luxury and social housing apartments included in the new Shires Shopping Centre in Leicester.".
 
In November 2008, we covered the news from Dulux Trade - take a look at Forum for the future leads by example with Ecosure which says: "Dulux Trade has measured the reduction in environmental impact of Ecosure, using two key sustainability criteria; embodied carbon and waste.".
 
Take a look also at the news release from Dulux Trade, Dulux Trade winning Contract Partnership, as well as Dulux Trade leading on VOC 2010 compliance from Dulux Trade, and High performance insulation products from NBT from Natural Building Technologies.
