	Eco-friendly natural paint Eco-trend's main ingredient is collagen. This raw material is extracted from natural waste materials, and used as a binder. ECOTREND Collagen has no harmful elements such as VOCs ; Benzen, Toluene, Xylene, etc.), heavy metal, and Formaldehyde. ECOTREND Collagen is the perfect eco-friendly natural paint. There is no odor, because ECOTREND Collagen has no organic solvent. ECOTREND collagen also contains no Texanol, often found in regular chemical polymer paint Easy Application The product is easy to use, water-based and perfectly suited to any building environment. The easiest natural paint to apply in the Australian market!. Outstanding Characteristics ECOTREND Collagen is a premium architectural interior paint because of its antibacterial, anti fungal durability, UV resistance, and negative ion properties. ECOTREND Collagen uses polypeptides for superior insulating properties. ECOTREND Collagen is more economical than other natural paints Speedy drying times and lower cost contribute to EcoTrend being the most economical natural paint on the Australian market.

Characteristics and Features

Natural Ingredients with no harmful effects on the human body
Conventional paint often contains thinners, organic solvent, ammonia, and formaldehyde. These ingredients can harm human heath. A recent study found that the main cause of allergic rhinitis may be formaldehyde, often found in stuffed toys.

ECOTREND collagen does not cause environmental pollution
The paint industry is a major cause of air pollution. However, ECOTREND Collagen contains no organic solvent, VOCs, or heavy metals. After application of ECOTREND Collagen, you will still maintain good indoor air quality.

Toxicity comparison between ECOTREND and conventional chemical paint

Classes	VOCs			Formaldehyde
Classes	Benzene	Toulene	Xylene	Formaldehyde
ECOTREND	None	None	None	None
Oil Paint	-	2,000~5,000	10,000~30,000	200~500
Water Paint	30~100	500~3,000	-	20~80

NOTE) The measurement is for the quantities by the unit area in the room within 24 hours of painting

Odorless
Odor from regular chemical paint is mostly from volatile organic solvents or ammonia. Even after the odour is gone, these chemicals continue to 'off-gas' into the environment, affecting human health. Ecotrend will not off-gas any poisonous chemicals into built environments.

Durability and Water resistance
Regular paint is prone to blistering due to underlying substrate dampness.
ECOTREND collagen uses hydrophobic collagen polymers for improved binding power. Therefore it has outstanding durability and water-resistance.

Ease of Application
Coating curing time was a major concern when ECOTREND collagen was originally designed. Therefore it has superior drying times to conventional paint, resulting in quicker recoat times, and more efficient application.

It is also easy to touch-up when maintenance is required, which results in longer recoat cycles, and lower maintenance costs.

Antibacterial and Anti-fungal Properties
Conventional paints can be a breeding ground for viruses and bacteria. ECOTREND collagen is antibacterial and anti-fungal, which makes it ideal for areas which are prone to mould, or need to be maintained hygienically, such as hospitals, laboratories and schools.

Healthy paint
ECOTREND collagen is good for human body, that is because it has 93% of total of infrared fay extracts, so it can accelerate blood circulation and encouraging metabolism in the body. It can also express negative ions, so if it is used indoor interior, it can be facilitative to clean the air.

The Paint for Interior Design
With its extremely smooth, flat finish, Ecotrend has low light reflectivity, which disguises imperfections, resulting in an elegant warm texture. It is available in soft pastel colours. -Go to the color Test
