Headquartered in Denver, Colorado, we operate recycling facilities in four states and distribute through hundreds of retail locations nationwide. Our paints, available in 18 pre-tinted colors with a 5-year warranty, combine proven performance with eco-conscious manufacturing.With over two decades of industry experience, our team ensures every gallon of paint meets rigorous quality standards. We pioneered closed-loop systems for paint bucket recycling and received Gold Recognition from the Colorado Green Business Network for sustainability leadership. By integrating advanced processing techniques and scalable operations, we provide municipalities, nonprofits, and consumers with economically and environmentally responsible solutions. Our customer-centric approach emphasizes transparency, durability, and value, making recycled paint the preferred choice for contractors and homeowners alike.
