Who will protect metal, wood or plastic permanently takes to paint the best. But the huge range of different coatings with very different composition, the decision does not necessarily easier for the consumer. Who knows itself in the intricacies of conventional paint, those made with the environmental angels and paint from the ecologically-oriented Building Materials?
The eco-label can still make a relative statement about the environmental friendliness of products. It features products with much better environmental characteristics, The comparable with the products pollute the environment much less. In search of high quality paints, which also are safe for health and the environment, but DIY is a proliferation of products. are simple selection criteria, unfortunately not, and terms such as "Nature" and "organic" are now so positive reception that they are used almost inflationary, "says the association BIOLYSA biology Plauen eV. Rüdiger Weis: ". And even with products that now have natural or organic to do little or nothing"
large range of colors can not only lay people but also the retailer often despair. BIOLYSA criticized In this context, the emerging everywhere as symbols of the "Blue Angel". Rüdiger Weis stated, ". Consumers may ultimately not know why the color has been marked with the emblem of" The Blue Angel "to stick to a Acrylatfarbe was, were not toxic in order, for acrylates.
"The criterion for the label existed solely to be a petrochemical solvent was replaced by water. Environmentally friendly but that is far from "the specialist and building biologist. Water can rot over a long period of storage, and decay processes would benefit by it. Another shortcoming is the settling of the pigments. Rüdiger Weis: ". Get why the new supposedly environmentally friendly paint chemical additives such as fungicides or suspended matter" Understanding the consumer and not back then. The experts recommend
of BIOLYSA Although "natural colors" for use on the surrounding walls, so that as little as possible to get plastics and petrochemical solvents produced in the living room, but equally urge caution. Tenor: manufacturers who call their colors despite large shares of petrochemical ingredients as "natural" colors, they often know by the complete absence of a full declaration. If
For example, the words Isoaliphates, isoparaffins, acrylic, micro waxes, epoxy or polyurethane called in the composition that it was not a natural color. Often, nature identical materials would be mixed. Pure natural colors are natural ingredients that are used in some cases for centuries by people with no damage. Paint residues were therefore in some cases even biodegradable!
Rüdiger Weis: "A real natural product retains an intact, living environment and benefit consumers by providing reliable, natural ingredients. It is at the end of its life cycle no hazardous waste, such as the conventional products is often the case. Building biologists know, as a rule with the . Ingredients of good and bad colors, and can advise consumers accordingly, "
