Paint
We commit
to making
of the decorative paint
we supplywater-based
by 2030
Although we supply everything you need for decorating, from brushes to masking tape, supplying high quality decorative paint remains at the very core of what we do. As an industry, one way we can make a big change is moving to water-based paints as solvent-based paints generally have more of a carbon footprint and have a negative impact on air quality. Our guiding principle is to work with manufacturers to provide water-based alternatives that perform as well or better than solvent-based paints – helping make the switch as easy as possible.
Waste
We commit to providing
you with the tools and
services you need to
in a Responsible way
Decorating can create a substantial waste footprint, from empty containers to surplus paint and contaminated water from washing out brushes and rollers. We are committed to delivering innovative, practical solutions that help you manage these materials responsibly, by boosting reuse and recycling, reducing environmental impact, and enhancing your sustainability credentials. By working together, we can make a meaningful improvement to our industry’s waste performance.
People
We commit to
positively impact
of the UK population
by 2030 through decorating community spaces and with training
People and communities are a crucial element of sustainability, and at Dulux Decorator Centre we want to support people through challenging times and give opportunities to the next generation. With this ambition we focus on improving and creating community spaces, giving people access to donated paint, upskilling people and providing the opportunity for training and new careers. 1% of the UK population represents 680,000 people in the UK and we are committed to positively impacting their lives through a variety of these initiatives.
