Environmentally Friendly Paint

The entire supply process is geared towards achieving eco efficiency, from paint production, to use of renewable natural materials and environmentally sound products, right through to how the paint is delivered. All of our Valtti and Feelings Liquid Imagination interior products conform to the standard European VOC regulations as required but our products are also tested independently at the Finnish indoor air quality institute to make sure that there is absolutely nothing in our paints which will effect the air quality in your home. If you see an M1 label the paint is tested.
