Ecofriend

With a wide variety of products already meeting new guidelines for industrial and architectural applications, and GS-11 standards, qualifying for LEED-certified projects, ‘Green initiatives’ are brilliantly putting green ideas at work.



At Sherwin-Williams, Green Initiatives have successfully used eco-friendly solutions in their business practices:



* It is developing coatings that use raw materials that are sustainable — like soy and sunflower oil.

* It has initiated wash-water management techniques and cleaning solvent recovery methods, in their manufacturing process, leading to less waste production.

* It has streamlined distribution processes across the nation, conserving natural resources using fuel, energy and raw materials as efficiently as possible.

* It is promoting awareness of proper surface preparation and application processes. Thus, it helps expand the life span of coatings, reducing the frequent emissions related to repainting and waste production.

* Its twist-and-pour containers are recyclable. Thus, it allows consumers to store more unused paint.

* Wit has also formulated many coatings that can clean easily and also resist mildew, harmful bacteria and other microbes, thus help improve indoor and outdoor environments.
