How it all works. Watch our animation below!
Did you know that each year an estimated 50 million litres of paint goes to waste in the UK? This leftover paint is either thrown away or stored in homes or garages despite over 50% of it still being usable. Our mission is to end this by offering a solution for leftover paint and making it available for reuse.
Community RePaint is a UK wide paint reuse network, sponsored by Dulux. We collect leftover paint and redistribute it to individuals and groups in the community. The network is made up of over 80 schemes from the Isle of Wight to the Scottish Highlands with a common goal of promoting reuse and saving waste.
But it doesn’t stop there, we’re innovators! We also remanufacture our own brand of paint called ReColour, available in larger volumes for bigger projects. ReColour is made from the same surplus and leftover paint which is filtered, blended and treated to produce a ‘nearly new’ product.
Paint from our schemes has been used to brighten playgrounds, community centres, homes, festivals, schools and other spaces around the UK for over 30 years. So find your nearest scheme and join us on our mission to end paint waste.
