Versus — Johannesburg, since 2000
For those who know
a wall is never just a wall.
Chapter I — The Story
Craft, built in Johannesburg for over twenty-five years.
Founded in 2000 as a specialist manufacturer and applicator of premium decorative coatings, Versus has spent more than two decades perfecting the surface — specified for landmark shopping malls, corporate headquarters, luxury hotels and casinos, exclusive game lodges, and exceptional private residences across South Africa.
Chapter II — The Spaces
From landmark malls to private sanctuaries.
Chapter III — The Partnership
Colour by Plascon.
Texture by Versus.
In March 2026, Versus entered a new chapter as part of the Kansai Plascon group, following its acquisition by Plascon — a member of Kansai Paint, one of the world's leading coatings groups. Versus retains its identity, its product development, and its dedication to the decorative specialist market — now backed by global strength.
Manufactured by Kansai Plascon, 10 Frederick Cooper Drive, Factoria, Luipaardsvlei, Krugersdorp, 1739.
