Sustainable Home Products

Finding a sustainable product shouldn’t be more difficult or cost more, and today, more of our compost is peat free more of our paint is water based and more of our power tools are energy efficient. 

46.8% of Kingfisher Group sales came from products and services that help create more sustainable homes in 2022/23.

Our Sustainable Home Product guidelines reflects the latest sustainability knowledge. We use our Sustainable Home Product Guidelines to assess each product to see if it will help customers reduce their environmental impact.

Paint inspired by nature

We sell a lot of paint so improving the sustainability of our ranges remains a top priority. We’ve already significantly reduced the use of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) in paint and this year we went further with the introduction of GoodHome Naturéa emulsion paint.

In Naturéa paint a significant portion of the resins usually derived from fossil fuels have been  replaced by biosourced resins. Resins are one of the main ingredients in paint and are used to hold the colour pigments together and help the paint to dry. Naturéa paint also contains minimal VOCs. It will be our first to display the new British Coatings Federation Trace VOC Globe demonstrating that it has a VOC content of less than 0.1% – helping to maintain good indoor air quality.
