And they are doing it! Loop is Ontario's only recycled paint brand - we take left over paint from the provinces garages and basements, sort it by quality and color, test it to make sure it's at least a mid-grade paint then re-package it for Ontario retailers.
As the only household-to-retail paint program in Ontario, our mission is to divert as much paint from landfill and incineration as possible. We do that by delivering a high-quality recycled paint that offers homeowners the all features they normally expect — smooth, easy coverage, gorgeous colours, and high durability — AND at a lower price than high-end paints.

What is Loop Paint?
Right now, in garages, attics and basements there are millions of gallons of unused paint. Every year Ontarians generate enough leftover’s to paint the interior and exterior of 9000 two-storey homes! We collect this paint through partners such as Stewardship Ontario and then sort the paint by type, color and quality. From there we create consistent colors and test the paint for quality according to industry standards such as sag, opacity, coverage, and durability. Every batch must have a small portion of new material such as color pigment to ensure quality and consistency. This re-processed paint is then packaged and delivered to retailer's province-wide.
