Healthy Homes Use Healthy Paint

Friday November 24, 2006
The options for paint in your home have never been more varied or healthy.

You don't have to use paints with formaldehyde like years past. With low VOC paints and ceramic paints with anti-microbial agents, you have a wonderful variety of durable, beautiful and safe, healthy paints from which to choose.

There is also certification by the Green Seal organization that objectively establishes criteria for healthy paints, helping to provide a third party review of paint company claims.

And for a great overview resource of paint and painting, see the aggregating resource House Paint Encyclopedia put together by our About.com Guide to Architecture.
