WALLS AND CEILINGS
Grade „A“ for AURO
People spend an average of at least one third of the day within
closed rooms, even more during the cold autumn and winter
seasons. Therefore it is important to use wall paints of the
highest quality that constitute no substantial source for the
pollution of the indoor air. In this respect, the so-called
„volatile organic compounds“ (VOC) play an important role.
These are substances that evaporate easily, i.e. they turn to
gas already at very low temperatures, even at room
temperature.
The complete AURO product range, especially the products
for walls and ceilings, fulfills the requirements of the French
VOC regulation and receives the top grades A or A+. More than
three quarters of the relevant products are graded A+.
Moreover, our wallpaints correspond to the Decopaint
Guideline (2004/42/EU). On
, you will find a
clearly arranged listing of all products that have these or
other certifications.

Recommended for living areas
In order to define a uniform health-
related evaluation of emissions from
building products for construction and
renovation, the German AgBB* has set up an evaluation scheme.
AURO offers products from every field of application that were tested
according to the AgBB evaluation scheme and are therfore particularly
recommendable for indoor use.
