Eco-Friendly Paint Choices in Saudi Arabia: Protect Your Health and the Planet
Eco-friendly paints with low or zero VOCs improve indoor air quality, reduce odors, and support Saudi Arabia’s Vision 2030 sustainability goals. These paints are ideal for homes, offices, and large-scale projects, offering durability and environmental benefits in the Kingdom’s harsh climate.
Key Takeaways
- Lower VOCs = cleaner indoor air and safer spaces for families.

Why Traditional Paints Can Be Harmful
Many conventional paints release Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) into the air, causing odors, irritation, and long-term health risks. Some also contain additives harmful to the environment, while their production processes generate greenhouse gases and waste.
Did you know? VOCs can linger for weeks after painting, affecting indoor air quality in bedrooms, clinics, and schools.
