What
about the Environment?
Consumers are becoming wary of
Volatile
Organic Compounds (VOC's)
in paint, suspected of contributing to greenhouse gases.
Manufacturers have responded with eco-friendly low-VOC and zero-VOC
options such as Benjamin
Moore Aura and Sico
Ecosource, paints that are just as tough wearing and similar in
price to conventional paint.
Boomerang Recycled Paints
For
the ultimate in green, the Quebec-based company Boomerang
Recycled Paints salvages and reprocesses paint.
Boomerang products are made from unused portions of recovered
domestic paint and stain remains. In order to guarantee the quality
of Boomerang products, about 1% of new material is added to the
remains, providing adequate and consistent luster levels, viscosity
and drying time.
Boomerang latex paint is a top quality product that has low
luster and can be used in most rooms in the home "on walls and
ceilings" wherever a durable, washable low-luster finish is
desired.
Boomerang alkyd paint offers a pearl finish and its performance
on any outside surface is impeccable.
Our exterior alkyd stain penetrates wood deeply, offering
excellent resistance to all kinds of weather.
Our semi-luster interior varnish provides excellent protection
for all wooden surfaces, except floors.
