Why it matters in a bedroom

You breathe your bedroom walls all night

You spend roughly a third of your life asleep, breathing the air closest to these walls. Conventional paint can keep releasing solvents and odours for weeks, even months. Natural, breathable paint does not. That is the whole point of what we do, and why we only stock paints we would use in our own homes.

  • Breathable, so less damp and mould

    Walls release moisture instead of trapping it behind a plastic film.

  • Trace VOCs and low odour

    Paint your room without the lingering fumes. Ready to sleep in far sooner.

  • Certified, not greenwashed

    VOC Class A+, Vegan, cruelty free, microplastic and formaldehyde free. Claims backed by certs.

Before you buy

How to choose, in 60 seconds

1
Matt or a little sheen?

Walls and ceilings look calm in a breathable matt. For woodwork and anything that gets touched, step up to eggshell so it wipes clean.

2
Is it a kids room or high traffic?

If little hands and scuffs are likely, choose a washable finish like Earthborn Lifestyle or our eggshell for the knocks.

3
Always test the colour first

Order a peel and stick swatch or a tester and live with it for a day. Colours shift with your light. Get a swatch.

How much paint will I need?

Measure up in a minute and we will tell you how many tins to order, so you are not left short or over buying.

"Really pleased with GrafClean Matt in Putty. A beautiful warm neutral, exactly as expected from the tester. Paired it with London Evening for an accent wall."
