What are VOC's?
"VOC's" are Volatile Organic Compounds. Organic solvents found in
paint are among many compounds that fall into this category. As paint
dries, organic solvents evaporate and combine with nitrogen oxides
and sunlight to create ground level ozone or smog.
LEED
The Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design (LEED) Green Building
Rating System™ is the nationally accepted benchmark for the design,
construction, and operation of high performance green buildings. Architectural
paints, coatings and primers applied to interior walls and ceilings
must not exceed the VOC content limits established in Green Seal Standard
GS-11, Paints, First Edition, May 20, 1993.
MPI Green Performance™ Standard (GPS)
The MPI Green Performance™ Standard requires that all products
shall meet or exceed the performance requirements of the applicable
MPI product standard. It also requires that certain restricted chemical
compounds are not used as ingredients in the manufacture of the product
and that the VOC concentrations of the product shall not exceed the
maximum allowable as determined by the FDA.
Dulux® Lifemaster™
ICI Paints was the first paint company in North America to offer interior
latex paint free of organic solvents. Now, 15 years later, ICI Paints
re-introduces the award winning Lifemaster in a more durable 100% acrylic
formula. While maintaining the benefits of fast "back to service" for
painted rooms, Dulux Lifemaster now offers longer service life for
commercial and institutional building owners and managers.
