Online Portal Encourages the Manufacturing of Sustainable and Innovative Architectural Coatings
ALINA company, Riga Technical University and the University of Latvia have partnered to launch an initiative to accelerate the manufacturing of green and innovative architectural paint products. The online portal, www.paintsforlife.eu portal, is the result of several years of extensive research and presents an innovative approach to the development of Ecolabel-compliant paint formulations. The initiative is within the framework of the EU LIFE program.
The project team has developed more than 20 sustainable architectural paint formulations available for industry professionals on the www.paintsforlife.eu portal. These formulations are developed to reduce toxic biocides and VOCs in architectural paint products. In order to facilitate sustainable product development, information on the formulations and the raw materials used in the formulations is open and available for all industry stakeholders.
