NATURAL ORGANIC PAINTS
WELCOME TO
ECOS natural organic paints are made to extremely high standards, using only the best natural raw materials. Full quality testing is carried out at every stage of manufacture. Used correctly, ECOS paints will perform as well if not better than old-fashioned solvent-based products. All products are washable and all shades are non-yellowing.
Conventional gloss paints AND emulsion paints contain solvents which can cause irritation and serious health problems. ECOS - the world's only range of solvent free natural paints and varnishes - literally a breath of fresh air!
A UNIQUE RANGE of natural organic PAINTS
ECOS
natural organic paints and varnishes are a completely unique
range of decorative finishes. It's
the only range of totally solvent-free paints and varnishes
available anywhere in the world today and has been independently
tested to reveal 0.0% VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds).
Most
paints currently on sale, both gloss and emulsion, contain solvents
and VOCs.
ECOS natural paints contain none.
As a result natural paints 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.

properly

A - some are highly toxic (vermillion,) - the others are limited to
subdued shades - browns, reds, yellows , black etc
