Dulux Introduces 99.9% VOC free1 Airsure range to minimise poor indoor air quality
Dulux Trade introduces 99.9% VOC-free1 Airsure range to minimise poor indoor air quality
Dulux Trade is strengthening its commitment to reducing the environmental impact of paint with the launch of a new product range that is 99.9%1 free of volatile organic compounds (VOCs).
Both BREEAM2 and LEED3 compliant, the products in the Airsure range can help customers meet the most stringent sustainability objectives5.
The range will initially include new Airsure Diamond Matt and Airsure Vinyl Matt - offering great quality, performance and coverage, while helping to minimise the impact on indoor air quality4 with a lower or equal carbon footprint6 compared to the standard formulations.
Paul Murgett, AkzoNobel Sustainability Manager, comments: "With the UK population spending on average around 80-90% of their time inside buildings6, indoor air quality is an important consideration for us all.
"VOCs evaporate away from paint into the air even at room temperature. Once in the air and exposed to sunlight, they react with nitrogen oxides already present to create pollution, which in high concentrations can affect health.
"Although the pollution impact of the VOCs from paint is very small, less than 2% of the total amount of VOCs emitted, we know they contribute to indoor air pollution6, and that is why we're pioneering new ways to minimise the amounts emitted by our paints.
"We're proud that by being BREEAM2 and LEED3 compliant our new Airsure range is independently tested as meeting the highest of green building standards, helping architects and project managers meet sustainability objectives5.
"As you'd expect, the new Airsure range delivers professional quality paint, offering the same high quality performance Dulux Trade is renowned for."
Airsure Diamond Matt is available in the full Dulux Trade tinted colour range and provides the same tough, durable finish as Diamond Matt, with scuff, scrub and stain resistant technology that means it meets Class 1 ISO 11998 and Type C BS 7719 scrub ratings.
The Airsure Vinyl Matt is suitable for all normal interior walls and ceilings, giving the excellent opacity, coverage and finish that Vinyl Matt provides.
The range is the latest in a line of sustainable products from Dulux Trade.
Last year AkzoNobel unveiled Dulux Trade Evolve Matt - the first paint offering from a major UK brand to be made using 35% recycled paint content. Dulux Trade also expanded its range of water-based trim paints by introducing Dulux Trade Diamond Satinwood in more than 14,000 different colours, increasing the options for customers to specify a more sustainable trim product that gives enhanced durability to help extend maintenance cycles.
Paul adds: "We're constantly using the latest research and technology to innovate, providing new solutions for architects, specifiers and contractors. There is more innovation in the pipeline to expand the Airsure range in 2021, giving an even greater choice of products to ensure our customers can meet the increasing sustainability requirements5 of their clients."
The Airsure range is available from 7th December 2020.

Dulux Trade unveils the ultimate in scuff resistance with new Scuffshield
Dulux Trade unveils the ultimate in scuff resistance with new Scuffshield
Dulux Trade has developed its most technologically-advanced anti-scuff formulation yet with new Dulux Trade Scuffshield Matt.
The flagship product has been precision-engineered to provide the ultimate in scuff resistance - offering performance up to six times better than standard matt wall paint and up to three times better than a standard durable matt - meaning maintenance cycles can be extended.
Incorporating new Scuff Resistance Technology, it is designed to reduce the impact of plastic and rubber materials on the paint surface to protect walls against scuff marks from everyday items like shoes and bags - making it an ideal product for high-footfall public environments such as schools or the leisure and hospitality industry.
Its durability and superior scuff resistant formulation can also help drive down costs in the long-term as it doubles the length of the maintenance cycle in comparison to standard emulsion.
Once it's applied, facilities and maintenance teams can easily clean walls with an appropriate cleaning product to make short work of any marks or stains that do appear.
Karen Wilkinson, Dulux Trade Marketing Lead comments: "Our expert research and innovation teams are continually working to develop industry leading products that deliver the ultimate in performance for contractors and specifiers.
"We're delighted to unveil Dulux Trade Scuffshield Matt. It's a tough, water-based emulsion that offers a step-change improvement in scuff-resistance while providing a high-quality, easily-wipeable matt finish.
The development of the product was led by Gary Jefferson, EMEA Interior Wall Paints R&D Manager, who explains: "Creating a really smooth surface at a microscopic level is the key to lessening scuffing on walls.
"This helps to reduce the impact from items known to cause scuff marks and lessen deposits of material behind left on the paint film
"By building on wider AkzoNobel technical innovations we have been able to formulate an advanced product that takes scuff-resistance and durability to a new level."
Dulux Trade Scuffshield Matt extends the comprehensive range of durable options Dulux Trade offers. It complements the existing Diamond range of interior wall and trim products that are formulated with unique strain repellent technology to protect against stains, as well as scrubs and scuffs resistance - providing increased options that fit to the unique requirements of every specification.
It's available in the full Dulux Trade tinted colour range - and can be colour matched to meet any specification required.
Karen adds: "By providing the ultimate in scuff resistance, Dulux Trade Scuffshield Matt also offers financial and environmental benefits that can really make an impact on a commercial project.
"The maintenance of a building is much easier and less costly if you're having to utilise less product and less labour to manage it on an ongoing basis.
"The exceptional performance of Dulux Trade Scuffshield will withstand the wear and tear caused by building users, leaving paintwork looking pristine for longer."
