Did you know thousands of paint tins are dropped o Did you know thousands of paint tins are dropped off at Reuse and Recycling Centres each year?

We are partnering with a growing number of local councils and waste management companies to ensure paint leftover from people's homes doesn't go to waste. 

Like @londonenergyltd (pictured). At their recycling centres, you can collect reclaimed paint for reuse for FREE! 

✅ It’s good for the planet.
✅ It’s great for your DIY budget.
✅ It's helping create a circular economy,  less waste, more reuse.

Is your local recycling centre partnered with us???

When it come to paint, we're building a #CircularE When it come to paint, we're building a #CircularEconomy ♻ this means that we are seeking to keep paint being used, and stop it simply going for disposal when it's no longer needed. 

Here's how it works: When there is leftover paint, our members take it in and stock it, and make it available for their community to reuse. Then, if there is still any paint leftover, the paint can go round again! 

This reuse model is RADICAL but we think it makes complete sense! Why let reusable paint go to waste? 

Are you in? 🤘
