SUSTAINABLE PAINT SOLUTIONS
Amoriguard A-Gain is an Agrément certified decorative paint based on processed wastes.
It was developed and formulated over a four year period by Prof Mulalo Doyoyo and Ryan Purchase. Not only is the A-Gain Topcoat low in VOC and other undesirable chemical substances, but most of the traditionally used fillers and extenders have been replaced by waste materials.
What makes Amoriguard A-Gain different from other products?
It is ‘green’. All harmful and polluting substances used in its formulation have been replaced with greener/ more environmentally friendly alternatives.
This results in a coating with minimal to none of the following: VOC’s (Volatile Organic Compounds); APEQ (Alkyl Phenol Ethoxylate); Glycol; Ammonia; and Formaldehyde.
Traditionally used Mineral Fillers/ Extenders (eg. Calcium Carbonate, Talc, Mica, Silica, Kaolin etc.) have been replaced with processed industrial wastes.
The level of these recycled products has been maxamised in the formulas for 2 main reasons:
- To maximise the usage of the waste materials. (Amoriguard A-Gain Topcoat contains 55% recycled materials – excluding water)
- To ensure a durable high build film that fills minor plaster defects and grain. (Amoriguard A-Gain Topcoat has a Mass Solids of 70% and Volume Solids of 55%)
