A UNIQUE range of sustainable paint supplies

natural paints suppliesECOS natural paints supplies and varnishes are a completely unique range of decorative finishes. It's the only range of totally solvent-free natural paints supplies and varnishes available anywhere in the world today and has been independently tested to reveal 0.0% VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds).

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 natural paints supplies 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 natural paints supplies INCLUDING Matt and Silk wall natural paints supplies! Using ECOS natural paints supplies means that rooms are safe and pleasant to live in-play in-sleep in-eat in!

Most natural paints supplies currently on sale, both gloss and emulsion, contain solvents and VOCs. ECOS natural paints supplies 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.

Many people say "Well, what is so special about ECOS? Surely, all organic natural paints supplies are solvent-free and besides, I can buy low-solvent paint from the local DIY store".

Wrong on both counts!

Many "Organic" natural paints supplies DO contain toxic solvents such as turpentine
Also, low-solvent does not equate with no solvent; ECOS contains NO Solvent

COMMON QUESTIONS/ENQUIRIES

Q - Why not use natural binders and resins rather than synthetic ones?

A - Some are animal products (bone, hide) - others take days to dry (oil based) - others (rosins) - need solvents to function (turpentine, white spirit) - in short, there ARE no adequate natural alternatives

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
