YOLO Colorhouse leads new era in environmental paints

Article Type: Industry news From: Pigment & Resin Technology, Volume 38, Issue 6

YOLO Colorhouse has achieved Green Seal-certification for their entire line of interior and exterior latex paint. By adjusting the levels of VOCs allowed in base paint and including criteria for colorants, the new standard ensures that even a heavily tinted paint will still contain minimum VOCs. YOLO Colorhouse paint was previously certified under the GS-11 environmental standard for paints, but they are now the first to achieve this new leadership level of certification under the recently revised Green Seal GS-11 standard for paint and coatings, revised in May of 2008. All YOLO Colorhouse coatings are completely free of carcinogens, formaldehyde, phthalates, hazardous air pollutants, and ozone depleting compounds.
