The 1980’s featured large prominent and iconic projects that consolidated Tambour’s leading position. The company expanded beyond Israel’s borders: a huge residential neighborhood in Nigeria overcame a problem with mildew using Tambour paint, Tambour’s Tamaglass system was used to paint hotels in Ghana and the 90,000-seat Lagos Stadium in Nigeria, and Tambour’s paint was also used for new hotels in Eilat. The company revolutionized the local market after the Tel Aviv municipal engineer approved the use of Tamaglass for prominent institutions and buildings, such as the Gibor Sport House, the Yakhin House, the skyscraping antenna in the Ministry of Defense compound in Tel Aviv, the Rambam Medical Center, the Rabin Medical Center, the Tel Aviv Dan Hotel, and others. The Council for a Beautiful Israel held a competition in order to select the most beautiful IDF base, and all of the IDF’s bases were painted with Tambour paint for the occasion. All of the police stations in Israel were painted with Tambour’s mocha-tinted Supercryl. Tambour’s paint was used for all of the beachfront hotels in Tel Aviv and Atarim Square. Many products were launched in this decade, among them Tambourtex, a paint with a unique slightly sandy texture, and Supercryl MD, which replaced Supercryl as the designated paint for external walls. The slogan for this period was “Painting the World.”
