An eco-friendly and proudly British brand

You’ve probably already realised how much we care about the planet here at splat, but we’re always happy to repeat ourselves about that: we care a lot. That’s why we’re incredibly proud of having the Eco-Union family on board. Joel and Nikki are an actual family, with four children and a dog. Based in the heart of Devon, they started the sustainable paint brushes adventure of Eco-Union in 2006 with the goal of leading the way in eco innovation in the decorating industry. A family-run British company that wants to lead an ecological innovation in the decorating industry? It does really sound familiar to us! Eco-Union is a certified B corporation, meaning that not only they do a lot for the environment, but they also have an outstanding social impact. If that’s still not enough, they sell into the Royal Household. And, if the Royal Household trusts them, you can probably be sure that they’re tools are quite good.

Eco-friendly paint brushes, bamboo paint rollers and more

Eco-Union’s sustainable paint brushes are amazing, but they’re not the only amazing thing that our friends Nikki and Joel do. They make plant-based paint trays that you will never discard again – but, if you really want to, you can do that without harming the environment. Eco-Union sustainable paint trays are also super easy to clean: you don’t need to wash them, just wipe them down and let them dry. Eco-Union also has a range of bamboo paint rollers and eco sleeves made with recycled materials for larger surfaces and bigger painting jobs. Finally, awesomeness in the form of a paint brush: the Made in Britain EcoBrushes. Just like splat, they like keeping things local at Eco-Union. Their bushes are handcrafted in the UK by three generations of brush makers who really know how to make tools that last a lifetime. We’re sure you will fall in love with Eco-Union’s recycled metal and bamboo paint brushes, so we really suggest you get the 5-brush set Made in Britain EcoBrush and your paint brushes need will be sorted for life. Eco-Union has something for all the professional decorators out there as well, with their range of Pro Brushes that will make your job easier while also brushing away the stains on your conscience.
