Welcome to the Community RePaint Website
Last year 400 million litres of paint (retail and trade) were sold in the UK. Of this, it is estimated that approximately 56 million litres are unused, stored in homes or garages or just thrown away. Thats enough paint to fill 22 Olympic-sized swimming pools!
Community RePaint provides a solution to this problem by providing an outlet for unwanted reusable paint while helping local communities and individuals.
We see 'waste paint' as a resource (as long as its reusable) so do your bit for the environment and your local community by donating your paint to us!
If you need paint for a redecoration or art project then use our post code search locator to find your nearest Community RePaint project.
In 2007 the Community RePaint national network:
• collected 450,000 litres of paint from householders, businesses, manufacturers and retailers (which otherwise would of ended up in landfill)
• with a market value of over £1.75 million
• redistributed over 250,000 litres of paint to community groups, charities, voluntary organisations and those in social need.
