Renewable Power in Manufacturing Process

Generating power from renewable sources for the manufacturing process is one of the key factors in creating a long term sustainable future, we measure and reward this sustainable behaviour.

Region of Manufacture

Transport costs are a major contributor to a products carbon footprint, buying locally is buying sustainably, so we record where the product is made and categorise it as UK, Europe & Rest of World.

Packaging

How we pack our goods is half the battle, we recognise products that come in recycled and easily recyclable packaging, another place to help cut out unnecessary plastic.

Water based or oil based paint

Oil-based paints release high levels of VOCs, contributing to air pollution and potential health issues. Making water-based paints more environmentally friendly and safer for human health.

Eco cost in use - coverage per tin (m2 per litre)

Between 12-14 m2 per litre is the average coverage per tin, so anything above this means you are getting more coverage per tin, so less tins needed and less weight in the delivery.

Opacity or volume of solids

This means how effectively paint covers the surface, so a higher score equates needed less layers of paint. This therefore means you need less tins to complete the job!

VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds)

A VOC refers to products that evaporate at low temperatures when used and can be harmful to our short and long term health, we monitor and assess our products so we can help you select safely.
