Little Greene are an independent British paint manufacturer, committed to the responsible production of high-quality paints and wallpapers. Their paints and wallpapers represent 300 years of decorative history. Referencing the key periods of interior design, from the 17th century to the late 20th century, they are committed to an ongoing research programme, and are proud to breathe new life into the best colours and patterns from the past.

A family-run business, with their own factory nestled in the foothills of Mount Snowdon in North Wales, Little Greene are the only British paint maker still producing a complete range of traditional and modern finishes. Their portfolio includes interior and exterior finishes, oil-based paints, floor paints and a signature range of hard- wearing, water-based ‘Intelligent Paints’, especially designed for today’s busy homes. Offering an extensive range of water-based and oil-based eco-friendly paint finishes, you can explore their environmentally-friendly paint finishes, available in their full colour palette. All water-based paints carry the industry's lowest eco-rating, with VOC content now virtually zero. This means that you don't need to worry about solvent contributions to the atmosphere, any respiratory issues, or nasty smells; the eco-paints are virtually odourless. Oil-based paints are traditionally favoured because of their renowned longevity and superb finish. Little Greene oil-based paints have been reformulated using sustainable vegetable oils, without compromising on their unrivalled quality.

Little Greene’s environmentally-friendly paints and wallpapers are amongst the highest quality available. They insist on using the finest natural, organic and safe synthetic pigments, giving superb depth of colour, high covering power and the long life expected from modern paints.

In striving to be sustainable their eco-friendly practices extend to their packaging and manufacturing. Their paint tins are made using over 50% recycled steel and can be recycled again.

Little Greene offer the safest, hard-wearing choices for decorating children's rooms and furniture. Their paints are developed with little ones in mind, so you can be sure your space is safe from any unwanted chemicals. Their Absolute Matt Emulsion, Intelligent Matt Emulsion and Intelligent Eggshell paints have been tested to European Standard EN 71-3: 2019 which means they are completely safe to use in all areas of the home as they don't contain any dangerous ingredients.
