In recent years, there has been a growing awareness of the harmful effects of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) found in traditional paints. As a result, an eco-friendly alternative have emerged in the form of VOC-free paint. This innovative solution not only addresses environmental concerns but also offers numerous benefits for health and sustainability.
What make's the paint VOC Free?
VOC-free paint contains minimal or no volatile organic compounds. VOCs are chemicals emitted as gases from certain solids or liquids, including conventional paints, which can have adverse effects on air quality and human health. VOC-free paints, on the other hand, are formulated using natural and non-toxic ingredients, making them a safer and more sustainable choice for both the environment and people.
VOC paint, or volatile organic compound paint, refers to traditional paints that contain chemical compounds that can easily vaporize at room temperature. These compounds, known as VOCs, are released into the air during the application and drying process of the paint. While VOCs can be found in various household products, including paints, they have gained attention due to their potential negative impact on air quality and human health.
Why do we use VOC Free paints?
