Earthborn

Earthborn paints are special. We do not believe you should have to sacrifice quality or style to protect your health or the environment. By carefully selecting ingredients and using technologically advanced manufacturing processes and formulations, we create outstanding products that prove our point. Earthborn provides stylish, high performance products that are safer to use and sound for the environment.

Earthborn was founded as a small, independent brand back in 2002, with the aim of providing a true environmentally friendly alternative to conventional paints. So it is safe to say that we have been supplying eco paints in the UK since before most people had heard of ‘eco’! Since then we have worked hard to build a trusted reputation for performance with style.

Taking a holistic approach to environmental issues we consider not only what goes into the breathable paint but also, perhaps more importantly, what comes out. Therefore all ingredients are carefully considered before being chosen, ensuring that our paints remain free from acrylics, oils and vinyls. To help consumers make an informed choice, all products carry a full declaration of ingredients. To further substantiate the eco credentials, Earthborn became the proud holder of the first UK licence of The EU Ecolabel for Indoor Paints and Varnishes, an independent accreditation scheme.

We have marketed our designer breathable paints successfully on the fact that they are high performance paints, with lots of special and unique attributes such as durability, breathability and no nasty smells. But over and above that they are also eco-friendly! For those looking for performance, sustainability, a healthier option or something beautifully different, Earthborn has it all.

Our high performing, breathable paints are naturally beautiful. No oils or acrylics mean no nasty emissions and high breathability. The Earthborn range of distinctive designer paints is available in a variety of colour palettes and a range of finishes, which are better for you, your home and the environment.

Earthborn paints are sold through a national network of stockists – see our website for details and to search for a stockist in your area

MADE FOR THE TRADE
Earthborn’s Ecopro range has been designed specifically for the trade. Guaranteeing the highest environmental and quality standards, these paints are easy to use and cover well. Their unique formulations deliver minimal VOCs, high breathability and outstanding performance.

There are three types of Ecopro – Emulsion, Eggshell and Silicate Masonry Paint – each offering a high performance, environmentally sound alternative to their conventional counterparts.

Ecopro Emulsion is available with a Matt or Lo Sheen finish. Matt is especially useful for new plaster, while Lo Sheen’s wipeability makes it suitable for higher traffic areas. Both have excellent covering properties, are hardwearing and made in all 100 BS4800 colours.

Ecopro Eggshell is suitable for woodwork as well as interior walls and ceilings. It dries quickly to a flexible finish that provides durability, washability and scuff resistance. Available in all BS4800 colours, its attractive sheen will not fade or discolour with time.

Ecopro Silicate Masonry System is a highly durable, long lasting alternative to limewash and conventional masonry paints. It bonds with underlying materials to create a water and weather resistant barrier that is also highly breathable. Ideal for stone, harling, brick, concrete or render, there are 24 standard colours, giving a classic matt finish that will not yellow with time.
