ECO FRIENDLY PAINT
WELCOME TO
Conventional
gloss eco friendly eco friendly paints AND emulsion eco friendly paint
contain solvents which can cause irritation and serious health problems.
ECOS - the world's only range of solvent free eco friendly paint and varnishes
- literally a breath of fresh air!
ECOS
eco friendly paint is made to extremely high standards, using only
the best raw materials. Full quality testing is carried out at every stage
of manufacture. Used correctly, eco friendly paint will perform as well
if not better than old-fashioned solvent-based products.
VOCs are a major contributor to low-level atmospheric pollution and the use of these compounds leads to global warming. In addition, the use of solvent-based eco friendly paints is a major cause of Sick Building Syndrome, Danish Painter's Syndrome, Asthma, Allergies, Chemical Sensitivities and the general Flu-like symptoms reported by many people using conventional eco friendly paints INCLUDING Matt and Silk wall eco friendly paint!
ECOS eco friendly paint and varnishes are a completely unique range of decorative finishes. It's the only range of totally solvent-free eco friendly paints and varnishes available anywhere in the world today and has been independently tested to reveal 0.0% VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds).
Most eco friendly paint currently on sale, both gloss and emulsion, contain solvents and VOCs. ECOS paints contain none.
As a result they are ideal for children's bedrooms, nurseries, kitchens and anywhere in the home, especially if you or a member of your family is chemically sensitive or suffers from asthma or allergies.

Q - why not use natural pigments/earth colours?
A - some are highly toxic (vermillion,) - the others are limited to
subdued shades - browns, reds, yellows , black etc
Q - Why is solvent-free important?
A - Because not only are lingering paint smells in the home unpleasant,
but many eco friendly paints including most matt and silk eco friendly
paints contain solvents which are positively harmful and cause Sick
Building Syndrome, Danish Painters Syndrome, asthma, allergies and
chemical sensitivities.

Many people say "Well, what is so special
about ECOS? Surely, all organic paints are solvent-free and besides,
I can buy low-solvent paint from the local DIY store".
Wrong on both counts!
Many "Organic" paints DO contain toxic solvents such as turpentine. Also, low-solvent does not equate with no solvent; ECOS contains NO Solvent
