Up Paint’s Sustainability Story

Have you ever wondered how paint is made? Or what happens to unused paint? Us too! We set out to answer these questions, and in the process, we discovered an earth-kind, affordable way to make better paint.

The Problem:

Over 850 million gallons of paint is produced each year and an estimated 10% of that paint goes unused - a number that grows yearly. Unfortunately, much of the unused paint ends up in landfills or improperly dumped which has detrimental consequences for the environment. In fact, over half of all the microplastics in the ocean are attributed to paint waste.

The Solution:

Unused paint doesn’t need to end up in landfills and oceans. Up® Paint rescues old paint and gives it second life with our proprietary Evergood™ Paint Recycling Process. Every gallon of paint purchased from Up Paint saves a gallon from polluting our environment.

Paint Recycling
