Choose Green... Always

Q: What's happening on the Green front in paint and painting supplies?

A: “As the green movement continues to gain momentum, we will see an increased interest and demand from designers and facility managers for environmentally responsible coatings,” says Jackie Jordan, Director of Color Marketing at Sherwin-Williams. “In particular, green initiatives and products are being mandated at a local, regional and even national level, especially for corporations, commercial and government facilities.

“Advances in technology have brought a new generation of green paints to the market that not only exhibit environmentally preferable characteristics such as low- or zero-VOCs and formulations without silica, but that also offer the application and performance attributes expected in a high-quality coating.”
