Eco friendly paints supplied by Ecos

Conventional gloss eco friendly eco friendly paints AND emulsion eco friendly paints contain solvents which can cause irritation and serious health problems. ECOS - the world's only range of solvent free eco friendly paints and varnishes - literally a breath of fresh air!
ECOS eco friendly paints are made to extremely high standards, using only the best raw materials. Full quality testing is carried out at every stage of manufacture. Used correctly, ECOS eco friendly paints will perform as well if not better than old-fashioned solvent-based products. All products are washable and all shades are non-yellowing.

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 paints!

ECOS eco friendly paints 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 paints currently on sale, both gloss and emulsion, contain solvents and VOCs. ECOS eco friendly 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.

Using ECOS eco friendly paints means that rooms are safe and pleasant to live in-play in-sleep in-eat in!

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

Wrong on both counts!

Many "Organic" eco friendly paints 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 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.
