IPRA 2021 Report Highlights Economic and Environmental Benefits of Recycled Paint
The International Paint Recycling Association (IPRA), which is facilitated by Product Stewardship Institute (PSI) and was developed by PSI in partnership with recycled paint manufacturers, just released some impressive statistics in its 2021 Annual Report.
During the fiscal year, IPRA members — an association of nine North American recycled paint manufacturers with decades of industry experience — worked in ten states and the District of Columbia to collect an estimated 6.6 million gallons of leftover latex paint. Of this paint, members reused or recycled more than 4.7 million gallons, resulting in a 71% paint-to-paint recycling rate.
