Why we love it

Auro is the first paint manufacturer to develop a fully automated tinting system for wall paints using consistently ecological earth and mineral pigments finely ground into pastes. This is the largest range of ready mixed natural paints available in Ireland. All the pigments used in the tinting are natural and VOC free too.

It is rated as A+ by the Agbb (Health – related evaluation of Emissions of Volatile Organic Compounds). The use of organic, natural and plant-based ingredients means that allergy and asthma sufferers and people who are chemically sensitive are much more able to tolerate Auro products and all ingredients are disclosed. 

This product is a vegan friendly paint and impressively the paint is fully compostable.

The finish is a fine and smooth coating because the light clay used in the product is not granular or sandy.
