Understanding Low-VOC and Eco-Friendly Paints
What Are VOCs?
Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) are chemicals that evaporate at room temperature, contributing to:
Indoor air pollution
“New paint smell”
Potential health concerns
Environmental damage
Benefits of Low-VOC Paints:
✔ Healthier indoor air quality — Especially important for children, elderly, and allergy sufferers
✔ Reduced environmental impact — Lower greenhouse gas emissions
✔ Odour-free application — Can occupy rooms sooner after painting
✔ Comparable durability — Modern formulas match conventional paints
