PaintCare is celebrating 10 years of providing consumer education and recycling opportunities for households, businesses and institutions that purchase paint, stain and varnish for use in their projects and operations.
Paint is a recyclable product, but the disposable methods tend to vary, as different types of paints need to be disposed of in different ways according to the economics of recycling. What you choose to do with your leftover paint establishes whether that paint will go on to have another life or not after you discard it.
New York’s State Senate Environmental Conservation Committee approved legislation sponsored by Senator Tom O’Mara to establish an industry-sponsored Paint Stewardship Program to reduce a burden on local governments that are currently responsible for collecting and disposing of most post-consumer, unused paint.
The British Coatings Federation (BCF) has unveiled the results of its 2016 PaintCare local authorities survey, which reveal the barriers to recycling leftover paint as faced by Household Waste Recycling Centres (HWRCs) across the UK.
The Canadian Paint and Coatings Association (CPCA) applauds the Government of Ontario for its desire to move forward to achieve greater waste reduction in Ontario.
The Canadian Paint and Coatings Association’s (CPCA) highest honor, the Roy Kennedy Outstanding Achievement Award for 2015, will be presented to Mark Kurschner, President of Product Care Association.
