In 2004, Little Greene was one of the first UK paint manufacturers to achieve the European standard for Environmental Management Systems, which helps organisations to reduce their environmental impact.<\/p>\n

All of its water-based paints carry the industry\u2019s lowest eco-rating (the VOC content is now virtually zero) and are made in the UK. Paint tins are made using over 50 per cent recycled steel and can be recycled again after use.<\/p>\n

More recently, the company\u2019s oil-based paints have been reformulated using sustainable vegetable oils, while their Absolute Matt Emulsion, Intelligent Matt Emulsion and Intelligent Eggshell are tested to \u2018Toy Paint Regulations\u2019 which makes them a safe choice for decorating children\u2019s rooms.<\/p>\n

Overall, the company has reduced its waste<\/strong> by 57 per cent<\/strong> in the last three years<\/strong>, showing a real commitment to the environment.<\/p>\n

Paying homage to designs and patterns created over the past 400 years, the new collection features design elements taken from the Georgian and Victorian era, as well as a leather wall-hanging and a 15^{th<\/sup> century tapestry amongst decorative items offering inspiration.<\/p>\n}

This wallpaper design comes in 7 colour options: Verditer, Deep Blue, Pale Blue, Oriental, Mineral, Yellow, and Grey.<\/p>\n
