Steyport has confirmed that all its products comply with the new Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) in paints, varnishes and vehicle refinishing products regulations.

Steyport, independent paint manufacturers of Centurion Paints and several own-brand labels for well known high street stores, has confirmed that all its products comply with the new Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) in paints, varnishes and vehicle refinishing products regulations The first phase of the new law, which comes into effect on January 1, 2007, states that all products must meet specific VOC levels and actual values must be displayed on the container

The second phase, which will reduce VOC levels further, comes into effect on January 1, 2010.

"Customers are becoming very anxious that manufacturers are not moving fast enough to meet the new regulations," said Wendy Drake, Managing Director of Steyport.

"That is why we addressed the situation early and are happy to report our status to the marketplace.

"The process for ourselves was very straight forward as over 90 percent of our products already met the 2007 limits so only minor alterations were required.

These have been completed with the utmost care to ensure the product retains its high-quality".

The Centurion Paint range includes Vinyl Matt and Vinyl Silk Emulsions, Contract Matt and Masonry Paint, Liquid Gloss, Undercoat, One Coat Gloss, a full range of tinting bases and colourants, Timbercare, Acrylic Eggshell and specific Kitchen and Bathroom products.

Steyport is one of the UK's leading independent surface coatings manufacturers.

Their products, including Centurion Paints, have established an excellent reputation among decorators and astute DIY individuals for a truly independent alternative to mass market paints.
