Manifesto

Rethink paint with us: how can we turn conscious choices into positive change for our homes and planet?

In a world of constant innovation, let's look beyond colour and finish. Explore how formulation, packaging, and logistics shape our environment. Join us in asking the right questions to craft a better approach.

We are developing a new approach that considers the whole system: the materials we bring indoors, the resources we use, and the processes connecting production to application.

Aprproximately 90% of our time is spent indoors.
We care about 100% of the product lifecycle: from production to application.
The whole system deserves consideration.

«Colour is just the beginning. Take action and ask what lies behind every tin.»
Three questions

Explore three dimensions shaping the future of paint.

Indoor air quality, sustainability, and process optimization. More than values, they guide the questions behind ACTIVATE. Explore the perspective that matters most to you.

01 Pillar 01 — Indoor air quality

What are we really breathing inside our homes?

Approximately 90% of time is spent indoors, on average. What if indoor air quality were part of the conversation from the very beginning?

  • Higher concentrations of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in indoor spaces can worsen conditions such as asthma, respiratory allergies, and chemical sensitivities. Choosing conscious formulations helps protect sensitive individuals and supports overall indoor well-being.
  • Considering indoor air quality means looking at materials alongside ventilation and space usage.
  • Paints are among the materials that can release volatile organic compounds (VOCs) into indoor air. Emission levels depend on formulation.

02 Pillar 02 — Sustainability

What environmental impact does 1 litre of paint have?

The environmental story of paint extends beyond its ingredients. A life-cycle assessment examines defined stages of a product’s journey.

  • The sourcing of raw materials, the energy required for production, the components used to preserve paint, and the materials our packaging is made of offer us different paths to explore a more sustainable way of doing things.
  • The European Biocidal Products Regulation (BPR, Regulation EU 528/2012) drives us to seek more respectful and sustainable solutions, ensuring maximum product durability, performance, and shelf life.
  • Water is one of the planet’s most valuable and vulnerable resources. With growing industrial demand, reducing water use and impact at the source is essential to protecting shared resources.

03 Pillar 03 — Process optimization

How much further can we optimize the way paint is made, transported and used?

Every stage between making paint and applying it involves choices about resources, packaging, transport and storage. Building on the knowledge gained over decades, where could we find new opportunities to simplify processes and use resources more efficiently?

  • Weight is the key: every kilogram we eliminate reduces transport weight, fuel consumption, and CO2 emissions on every journey.
  • Shape matters: a square, compact package requires up to 40% less storage and transport space compared to traditional cylindrical tins, maximizing capacity on every pallet and journey.
  • Water is necessary: it is also responsible for introducing preservation, thermal stability, and weight challenges along the supply chain. Questioning how we manage these factors opens the door to exploring far more efficient processes.
