A million litres of paint saved from landfills
Posted: Tuesday, October 29th, 2024
Since opening in 2013, Community RePaint Wirral run by Recipro, has redistributed one million litres of paint through reuse and remanufacturing. Community RePaint Wirral collects paint from several Household Waste Recycling Centres and receives donated leftover paint from businesses and decorators in the local area. Their shelves are stocked with thousands of full and part-full tins of paint that members of the public can purchase at an affordable cost, helping to ensure that useable paint is saved from unnecessary disposal. Community RePaint Wirral facilitates paint reuse and remanufactures ReColour paint. Made from leftover paint saved from waste, ReColour allows larger-scale projects and buildings to also benefit from reusing paint. Using innovative technology, they filter, treat and blend leftover paint to create high-quality and affordable new products. By redistributing 1,000,000 litres of leftover paint, Community RePaint Wirral has facilitated hundreds of projects for individuals and community groups, brightening homes and community spaces.
