Our Commitment To The Environment 

Meeting the challenge for a sustainable future

Dulux is continually developing new ways to reduce the environmental impact of its products and activities- environmental sustainability forms a core element of our business philosophy.

Dulux leads the industry in the move towards high performance water-based coatings. Environmental intiatives also include the clean up of sites, identification and conversion to low impact products and processes, product stewardship and creating sustainable business partnerships for future generations.

VOCs & Paint

At Dulux we strive to reduce Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) in all our paint products. VOCs are solvent and petrochemical additives that evaporate from paint during manufacturing and application. We produce a range of premium paints that contain less than 5 grams per litre of VOCs*- Dulux Wash & Wear Eco Choice and Dulux Professional EnvirO2. The low VOC and low-odour formulation contributes positively to the indoor air quality and reduces air pollution.

Carbon Neutral Paints

We are also proud to be a member of the Green Building Council of Australia. A partnership aimed at developing sustainable products for the property industry and the adoption of green building practices in Australia.

Dulux Eco Choice Range

High performance Dulux paints are now more environmentally reponsible.When you see the Eco Choice symbol you can be confident you are selecting quality Dulux paint that is kinder to our environment. Eco Choice paint is lower in VOCs, so it creates less emissions and odour.

When selecting premium quality paints with superior washability, easy application, lower VOCs and lower paint odours - the choice is easy. Dulux Prepcoat ASU, Wash & Wear and Ceiling White provide a complete interior painting solution.

Dulux EnviroWash System

Our commitment to the environment extends beyond paint to that of the paint cleaning-up process.
The Dulux EnviroWash System is an innovative water-based paint wash and treatment system that turns dirty paint wash-out into clean wash water and solid non-hazardous waste.
