Last year 400 million litres of paint (retail and trade) were sold in the UK. Of this, it is estimated that approximately 56 million litres are unused, stored in homes or garages or just thrown away. Thats enough paint to fill 22 Olympic-sized swimming pools!
Community RePaint provides a solution to this problem by providing an outlet for unwanted reusable paint while helping local communities and individuals.
We see 'waste paint' as a resource (as long as its reusable) so do your bit for the environment and your local community by donating your paint to us!
If you need paint for a redecoration project then use our post code search locator to find your nearest Community RePaint project.
In 2006 the Community RePaint national network:
• redistributed over 208,000 litres of paint (which overwise would of ended up in landfill)
• worth over £800,000
• to a total of 11,000 individuals and community and voluntary groups.
