The New York Times highlights. Little Greene Paints: a green revolution

English paint manufacturer, Little Greene, is making waves with its innovative approach to environmental sustainability, as reported by The New York Times.

Little Greene Paint Company, a renowned British brand, is revolutionizing the paint industry with its innovative approach to environmental sustainability. Rather than disposing of unwanted paint, they have found a solution: blending it to create a new product line.

David Mottershead, the company’s founder and a chemist, recognized the issue of paint waste and decided to take action. Excess paint from the manufacturing process and customer returns was being sent for incineration, resulting in a significant waste of resources and energy.

Introducing Re:mix, a collection of 20 shades made from untouched and uncontaminated leftover paints. The range, launched in March, offers a mix of matte and eggshell finishes suitable for indoor use. By embracing Re:mix, Little Greene demonstrates its commitment to sustainability and responsible manufacturing.

Creating Re:mix involved leveraging technology and expertise. A computer algorithm identified different waste paint colors and calculated the precise mixing ratios to achieve new standard colors. This meticulous process ensures that each can of Re:mix meets the brand’s high-quality standards.

What sets Re:mix apart is its affordability. Priced at only 28 pounds ($32) for 2.5 liters (a little over half a gallon), it provides customers with a cost-effective option without compromising on quality. Little Greene aims to make sustainable paints accessible to a wider audience.
