GREENGUARD Gold Certification

What is GREENGUARD?

Our paint is GREENGUARD Gold Certified, meaning it is certified to be low-emitting, contains fewer pollutants and contributes to healthier indoor air quality. GREENGUARD Gold Certification requires that products meet some of the world's most rigorous standards for low emissions of VOCs into indoor environments.

How paint is tested

To become GREENGUARD Gold Certified, paint undergoes rigorous testing for over 360 VOCs and hazardous chemicals in a dynamic environmental chamber that simulates the air flow in a typical home environment. Measurements for chemical and particle emissions are taken at intervals and products must meet allowable emission levels within 7 to 14 days of application.

GREENGUARD Gold certification testing is performed by UL Environment, a global, independent safety science company with more than a century of expertise. To remain certified, our paint will undergo rigorous testing annually, so you can have peace of mind that our products support healthier indoor air.

About VOCs

- Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs), are carbon-containing compounds, emitted as gasses, that can pollute the air in your home and the environment. VOCs are commonly present in a wide array of household products.

- Our paint is Zero VOC, which means no carbon-based solvents (VOCs) have been intentionally added to our products, although trace amounts of VOC may be present as residual components of other ingredients

- We also use only Zero VOC colorants in our paint, so they won’t add VOCs when the paint is tinted.

- View our Technical Data Sheets or visit our FAQ page here for more information on the VOC contents of our paint.

Check out this informative overview from The Environmental Protection Agency on the impact of VOCs in your home.

- According to the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), studies have found that levels of VOCs are 2 to 5 times higher indoors than outdoors.

- Read this informative article from our blog on why we believe you should only buy zero VOC interior paint.

Lead & Asbestos

Our paint does not contain lead. Lead-based paints were banned by the Federal government from consumer use in 1978. If you live in a pre-1978 home, there is a possibility your home could contain lead-based paint or asbestos. Exposure to lead or asbestos can be very hazardous to your health. Scraping or sanding surfaces of older buildings (especially pre-1978) may release dust containing lead or asbestos. Always wear personal protective equipment while sanding and washing these surfaces. For more information, call EPA’s National Lead Information Hotline at 1-800-424-LEAD, contact your state or local Health Department or visit the helpful links below.
