We always consider the environmental impact of our product and production solutions. We are committed to developing new eco-friendly products, using recycled materials and further developing our existing products. Our goal is to make our products as high-quality and easy to use as possible while keeping nature’s best interest in mind.

Spray paints as part of sustainable development

Spray paints are an environmental choice, rivalling liquid paints in eco-friendliness. Spray paints allow for thinner coats compared to paints applied with regular brushes or roller. The paint spreads evenly starting with the first coat, significantly reducing the amount paint required.

With liquid paints, accessories like brushes and rollers need to be cleaned and recycled according to strict instructions. With spray paints, recycling and the environment are easier to take into consideration because a fully exhausted spray can is recycled as scrap metal.

Waterborne paints pave way to the future

Maston’s Zero is the first solvent-free and non-flammable spray paint series in the world. The series is based on unique waterborne technology which enables us to make an odorless product. Zero spray paint has a very low VOC rating, indicating low amounts of volatile organic compound.

We continue to invest heavily in the production of waterborne paints. Our goal for the future is to make most of our products waterborne and therefore eco-friendlier.

We develop products with environmental impact in mind

Reducing environmental impact is one of our product development goals. We place particular emphasis on developing water-based products, material efficiency, and product durability.

We take environmental impacts into account on our product and production solutions and continuously improve our operations. We strive to reduce material usage, utilize recyclable materials whenever technically and qualitatively feasible, and improve the durability and usability of our products. Our goal is to manufacture long-lasting and easy-to-use products.

Fossil-free electricity

The origin of the electricity used in production is verified through guarantees of origin. According to the certificates of origin, the electricity we use is 100% fossil-free.

Spray paints and material efficiency

Spray paints allow for a smooth finish with thin coats of paint. Depending on the application, painting method, and the user’s working style, less paint may be used compared to some solutions applied with a brush or roller.

Spray paint cans are made of metal, and completely empty aerosol cans can be recycled according to local sorting guidelines. Proper cleaning and recycling of other painting supplies is also important for reducing environmental impact.

Development of water-based products

The Zero series is based on water-based technology. The VOC (volatile organic compound) emissions of the products in this series are low compared to traditional solvent-based spray paints. The product properties and VOC values are listed in the product-specific technical data.

We are continuously developing our range of water-based products. Our goal is to increase the share of water-based solutions in our product range wherever it is feasible in terms of the product’s intended use and performance.
