VALPAINT’s sustainable philosophy

environmentally and economically sustainable decorative paints

A NEW CONCEPT OF DECORATIVE PRODUCTS

Thirty years ago, a decorative product was required, first and foremost, to be aesthetically pleasing. But over the past twenty years, VALPAINT has come to see the term “decorative varnishes” as an understatement, given how impressive the characteristics they boast really are: greater technical performances, more respect for the environment, and product safety through the gradual reduction of harmful substances in the liquid phase and the resulting decrease in their emissions into the air.

GREEN CERTIFICATIONS

VALPAINT has taken steps to reduce and, in some cases, completely cut out the use of harmful substances, finding green alternatives to compounds like IPA, APEO, FORMALDEHYDE and AMMONIA within its formulations.

Thanks to this research, VALPAINT has earned prestigious green certifications and succeeded in reducing, as much as possible, the handling of harmful substances inside its production plant.

All VALPAINT products are LOW VOC: i.e. they have a low content of volatile compounds which can damage the environment and human health.

VALPAINT has achieved the Japanese F-FOUR STARS (JISA 1902-3) certification concerning formaldehyde, and is categorised as Class A+ under ISO 16000, indicating the lowest level of indoor emissions.

GREEN RAW MATERIALS

The producers of raw materials are carefully chosen and selected based on their strengths and ability to invest in sustainability and innovation. Some of them have already set a target of reaching climate neutrality well ahead of the date chosen by the European Council in December 2020.

LIFE CYCLE ASSESSMENT AND ENVIRONMENTAL PRODUCT DECLARATION

VALPAINT has begun the task of defining the common rules and the method of calculation for determining environmental properties in accordance with standards ISO 14040 and ISO 14044 (LCA), to produce the Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) for its products.
