Eco.paint.deco
Description
Eco PD where quality, style, your health and the environment go hand in hand for a brighter future. We use 100% eco-paints, wood finishes and procedures. Normal paints are full harmful chemicals and are made in ways that devistate the envrionment and peoples health. Even many producers of 'eco' or 'natural' paint many use synthetic, petrochemical-based ingredients with solvents that contain VOCs and many contain animal products. And some contain titanium dioxide as a whitener, which is a big contributor to environmental problems. Clearly, there are degrees of 'eco', and the only way to decide is to read the label carefully and consider all the claims made by the manufacturers and that's where we fit in by using only natural ingredients without harmful chemicals that haven't been tested on animals or contain any animal products or produce.
Normal paints are so toxic that the World Health Organisation says that professional decorators are 40% more likely to contract lung cancer, so it's no great leap to wonder whether paint in the home is detrimental to those living there and not to mention those who get allergic reactions. Add to that the potentially harmful processes involved in the manufacture of paint because not only does standard paint production involve the use of non-sustainable resources, it's said that producing one litre of paint can result in up to 30 litres of toxic waste. Using 'eco' paints is therefore always the right decision.
