Go Green With Low VOC Painting

Why do we insist on low VOC painting on all our projects, interior and exterior? Because it’s part of our Go Green commitment to you and to the environment.

Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) are found in the solvents, resins and other additives used to make paint. As the paint dries, those VOCs evaporate into the environment.

VOCs not only contribute to the formation of ozone and smog, they can also cause a wide range of health effects on people who breathe them in: eye, nose and throat irritation, respiratory problems, headaches, nausea, allergic skin reactions, dizziness, fatigue, damage to liver, kidneys and the central nervous system. VOCs have even been linked to cancer in animals.

That’s why governments around the world, including Canada, have toughened their regulations for VOC levels in products like paint, paint strippers, solvents and more.
