Leading the Way in Eco-Friendly Paint: How Sherwin-Williams and Benjamin Moore Are Shaping a Greener Future

At Graystone Painting & Refinishing, we take pride in delivering exceptional results while being mindful of our impact on the environment. As professional interior and exterior painters serving Topeka, Lawrence, and Eudora, we’re seeing a growing number of homeowners asking about safer, more sustainable options for their painting projects. Fortunately, two of our most trusted suppliers, Sherwin-Williams and Benjamin Moore, are leading the way when it comes to environmentally friendly, water-based, and low-VOC paint products.

Why Low-VOC and Water-Based Paints Matter

Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) are chemicals found in many traditional paints and primers. These compounds evaporate into the air as the paint dries, contributing to indoor air pollution, respiratory irritation, and long-term environmental damage. By switching to low-VOC and zero-VOC paints, homeowners can enjoy improved air quality, reduced odor, and a safer environment for their families—all without sacrificing durability or finish quality.

Sherwin-Williams: Commitment to Sustainability

Sherwin-Williams has developed a range of high-performance, environmentally conscious products designed to meet strict sustainability standards. Their Emerald®, Harmony®, and SuperPaint® lines include low- and zero-VOC options with outstanding coverage and durability. The Harmony® line even contains technology that helps reduce common indoor odors and formaldehyde levels, making it a top choice for eco-conscious homeowners.

Benjamin Moore: Innovation Meets Environmental Responsibility

Benjamin Moore’s Natura®, ben®, and Regal Select® lines are some of the most respected low-VOC and water-based paints on the market. Their Natura® line, for example, is certified asthma- and allergy-friendly by the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America. With Benjamin Moore’s waterborne colorants and advanced formulations, customers can enjoy vibrant, lasting color with minimal environmental impact.
