Eco Friendly Painters

We are eco-friendly painters because we care about the environment and climate change

At Phantom our eco-friendly Painters and Decorators care about the environment and how our actions can impact climate change. As professional eco painters and decorators we believe we have a duty to protect the environment and reduce our carbon footprint. To this end, we have set down below how we intend to do our bit for the environment and climate change.

At Phantom Painters we pledge to:

Minimise paper, ink and toners

• Our environmentally friendly Painters and Decorators will operate on a paperless basis as much as possible, printing if only absolutely necessary and on recycled paper. As eco friendly painting company we will not lease or own large office printers and photocopiers and only order any professional printing as when and necessary.

Keep harmful fuel emissions low

• Minimal use of diesel-fuelled vehicles and plant machinery. Our eco-friendly Painters and Decorators will only use vehicles and plant machinery when absolutely necessary, without compromise to health and safety.
• As eco-friendly painting contractors we will not operate a vehicle fleet and only hire the minimum number of vehicles for the minimum time necessary. Where our suppliers offer delivery services we shall make good use to minimise unnecessary travel by car or van.
• We allocate our eco friendly painters and decorators projects near their home to enable them to travel from/to and between jobs using public transport.

• Use sustainable energy – our eco friendly Painters and Decorators will use sustainable energy where readily available,. For example: use rechargeable battery or electric-operated equipment and avoid use of gas cylinders such as butane, propane and liquid petroleum gas (LPG)

Protect the ozone layer from harmful toxins

• Avoid use of toxic products and materials – our eco friendly Painters and Decorators will avoid using any toxic product or materials, including cleaning chemicals that are harmful to the environment.
• Use eco-friendly water-based paints – we will encourage and use water-based eco-friendly paint wherever possible such as Farrow & Ball. If an oil-based or solvent-based paint can only be used, we will buy and use as little as possible.

Encourage recycling

• Practise responsible waste management – our eco-friendly Painters and Decorators will manage and dispose of waste in the most responsible manner. For example: recycle paper, plastic, wood and metals as much as possible. Only use licenced waste disposal; no naked flame burning of any waste. Use product refills where available. Remove and dispose of harmful materials by approved contractors e.g.: asbestos. And only buy and use quantities required for the job in hand.

Monitor environmental impact

• Evaluate environmental impact – our environmentally friendly Painters and Decorators will assess any potential impact to environment and how we may mitigate any harm. We will publish, each fiscal year, our environmental impact statement that can be downloaded from our website.
