1 Making Paint Purchasing Decisions that Matter
2 San Joaquin County Administration Building 4,500 gallons of recycled paint!
3 SJC Green Purchasing Policy Green Purchasing sets forth practices that promote sustainability Reduce waste Purchase products that minimize environmental impacts, toxics, pollution, and hazards Purchase products that include recycled content, are durable, longlasting, conserve energy and water, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions
4 SJC Green Purchasing Policy Purpose Conserve resources & minimize impacts Strengthen & support local recycling markets by encouraging departments to use such products whenever practicable Increase the use of environmentally preferable products Create a model for purchasing recycled products that encourages others in our community to adopt similar goals
5 Why Use Recycled Paint? Quality and Selection Proven to perform to same standards as virgin paint. Available for interior/exterior projects Variety of colors/sheens 2010 by the California Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery (CalRecycle)
6 Why Use Recycled Paint? Lower Cost Less expensive than virgin paint (30-60%) Less expensive to recycle paint than to produce new paint from raw materials 2010 by the California Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery (CalRecycle)
7 Why Use Recycled Paint? Environmental Benefits Contains at least 50% recycled content Saves valuable non-renewable resources (e.g., titanium dioxide ) Saves water and energy Closes the recycling loop! Low VOC 2010 by the California Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery (CalRecycle)
8 Paint Selection Criteria Purchase the correct amount Saves money Reduces waste Estimate use with online paint calculator Purchase GS-43 Recycled-Content Paint 2010 by the California Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery (CalRecycle)
9 What is GS-43? Green Seal Standard for Recycled-Content Latex Paint Established environmental & performance requirements for recycled latex paint Interior Exterior
10 What is GS-43? Consolidated Paint contains a minimum of 95% postconsumer paint, with a maximum of 5% secondary industrial or virgin materials Reprocessed Paint contains a minimum of 50% postconsumer paint, with a maximum of 50% secondary industrial or virgin materials Both GS-43 categories guaranteed to meet or exceed industry standards
11 What is GS-43? Green Seal Certified Recycled Paint Extensive performance reviews Meets low VOC criteria VOC calculation includes tinting color added Minimum 50% post-consumer recycled content
12 What is GS-43? Green Seal Certified Recycled Paint Meets or exceeds ALL applicable Master Painters Institute performance standards. The exact same performance standards as virgin paint.
13 Procurement Contract Language Update procurement specifications Ensure that outdated/unnecessary requirements do not exclude recycledcontent products from consideration. Ex: paint Include recycled-content product language Add language that requires vendor to take back unused products
14 Leveraging Resources BuyersMain/BuildingandMaintenance/ Paint.aspx Use statewide contracts to purchase recycled paint DGS Buying Green Guide
15 Recycled Paint Buy Local Several local retail stores now carry recycled-content paint Visions GS-43 certified: Stockton Ace Hardware Van s Ace (Tracy) Schemper s Ace (Ripon) Other brands: Contract Coatings/ Velvacon (Stockton) Kelly-Moore ecoat
