Excellent performance and superior indoor air quality
With a large part of our daily lives spent inside buildings, the reduction of volatile organic compounds (VOC) in interior decorative coatings is a growing trend in Europe, fueled by regulatory changes, development of ecological labels and initiatives from consumer protection agencies. As a result, demand for paints formulated without solvents, co-solvents or other coalescing agents (still used to improve the film formation of most conventional water-borne decorative coatings) has never been so high, both among health-conscious do-it-yourself consumers and among managers of public buildings trying to minimize the nuisance and business interruptions caused by renovation work.
With Mowilith®/ Celvolit® Vinyl Acetate Ethylene (VAE) emulsions, the reduction of VOC emissions from interior decorative paints is a problem solved. Established for more than 10 years as the leading binding system for low emission and solvent-free paints, Mowilith®/ Celvolit® VAE emulsions have helped paint producers to develop paints that anticipate the trends towards VOC reduction and meet the criteria of the European Ecolabel, as well as all national ecological labels.
VAE emulsions - The solution for low emission paints
Mowilith®/ Celvolit® VAE emulsions, a binder technology developed specifically to formulate quality paints without any coalescing agents, have been the natural answer to these new challenges to the paint industry. Due to their chemical nature, Mowilith®/ Celvolit® VAE emulsions allow excellent film formation and superior comfort during application, whilst maintaining the most important properties of the paint: washability, hiding power and color development
This is why Mowilith®/ Celvolit® VAE emulsions have become the most widely used system in Europe for low emission decorative coatings. Formulating interior decorative coatings with Mowilith®/ Celvolit® VAE emulsions is addressing the changes in regulations and meeting the toughest ecological standards.
