VOCs ? How many brands of Zero VOC paint are there anyway ?

Answer, Only One = and its Lakeland Paints. So is that other brand of "Zero VOC" Paint not truly Zero VOC ? Probably not. Many are not what they claim to be. The Zero VOC Fib is that most other paints claiming to be Zero VOC & VOC-free aren't ! They say that for them, VOC Free means "not more than 0.1% VOC" - but its just Not true. The ASA says "VOC-free" means a total absence of VOCs in all products". (A17-396612). Lakeland Paint is Zero VOC – like the air in your home - and we are happy to send the certificates. Remember - If you want Truly Zero VOC certified paint, it Has to be Lakeland Paints.

“Used 6 x 5L cans of this white wall primer on the walls of our small newbuild home. It covered the tape and jointing perfectly, leaving a really nice flat finish. Great coverage of the 2 different surfaces, the tape and jointing and the bare plasterboard and a pleasure to work with. We used a medium pile roller as suggested. Its our first time using the wall primer but I wouldn't hesitate to use it again or recommend it to others. The paint calculator was accurate and we ordered just the right amount.”
