It’s Not Just Paint

Cloverdale Paint

Cloverdale Paint is dedicated to environmental stewardship through its Product Care program, which promotes responsible paint disposal and recycling across eight Canadian provinces. By providing accessible drop-off locations for leftover paints, primers, coatings, and empty cans, Cloverdale Paint helps reduce landfill waste and prevent environmental contamination. Their PaintShare program further supports sustainability by offering quality leftover paint for reuse, while the recycling process ensures that remaining materials are managed responsibly. This initiative not only minimizes the ecological impact of unused paint but also fosters a culture of environmental responsibility.
