EPD: Natural pigment paint for wooden surface, Falu Rödfärg Original (Stora Enso)

The production of the traditional Swedish Falu Rödfärg Original paint involves the use of pigment extracted from the weathered waste rocks of the historical mining operation, binders of renewable origin and additives. The pigment is mixed in water with the binders and cooked to form a stable paint. Small quantities of additives are used to adjust the paint properties and to provide adequate self-life. Once the paint is produced, it is packaged and distributed to retailers for sale to consumers.
