Here's how to swap to non-toxic interior paint:
Interior paint covers large surface areas in your home and can release compounds into the air you breathe for weeks or months after application. Welpr looks at the formulation of paints, including what solvents, pigments, and additives are used, as well as whether the paint contains volatile organic compounds (VOCs) or synthetic fragrances.
Look at the labels on any paint cans you currently own or plan to use. The key things to check are the VOC content, any added fragrances or odor-masking agents, and whether the paint is water-based or solvent-based.
If you are using paint you already own, how you apply it and ventilate the space can make a real difference in what you and your family breathe in. A few simple habits reduce indoor air exposure significantly.
When buying new paint, look for products with zero-VOC content and transparent ingredient lists. The cleanest options skip synthetic fragrances, odor maskers, and unnecessary chemical additives.
