Natural Non Toxic Paint and Finish Products from Livos

A truly sustainable design means considering the environmental impact of all construction materials right down to the paints and finishes.

Assisting architects and designers, demonstrating to trades people and educating home owners about their options for healthy, environmentally responsible living is a key part of what we do. Livos does not only manufacture environmentally sustainable products, we are also committed to helping people live more sustainably.

Your choice of building materials and coatings will have a long term ramifications on many levels. Some points to consider are;

1. Health. A sustainable home is not necessarily a healthy one. Consider why some paints do not smell as they use to? Yes, they are produced differently with VOC (Volatile Organic Compounds) in mind but is this enough? What other additives are being used to mask this smell? Why are homeowners still reacting to products that have low VOC? Are you aware that many synthetic products continue to off gas for weeks and some, many months after the coating has dried?
