Low VOC Interiors. This is the future.

Creating Healthier Interiors with KEIM Mineral Paints.

Modern interior spaces often rely on conventional acrylic paints that contain plastics, solvents and preservatives. While widely used, these paints can release volatile organic compounds (VOCs) into the air long after application, contributing to poor indoor air quality, lingering odours and potential health issues.

For homes, schools, healthcare settings and workplaces, the challenge is clear: how do you achieve beautiful, durable interiors without compromising occupant health?

The solution

KEIM Mineral Paints provide a fundamentally different approach to interior finishes. Instead of plastic-based binders, KEIM uses a mineral water glass (potassium silicate) binder, resulting in a paint that is entirely mineral in composition.

This allows KEIM interior paints to be:

• Ultra-low VOC

• Free from solvents, plasticisers and biocides

• Odourless during and after application

• Naturally breathable, supporting healthy moisture regulation

Because the paint chemically bonds with mineral substrates rather than forming a sealed plastic film, walls are able to breathe, reducing the risk of trapped moisture, mould growth and unhealthy indoor environments.

The result

Interiors finished with KEIM Mineral Paints deliver:

• Noticeably improved indoor air quality

• No lingering paint smells

• A healthier environment for children, allergy sufferers and sensitive occupants

• Long-lasting colour that does not off-gas over time

KEIM’s mineral pigments are lightfast and non-toxic, ensuring that colour remains stable and vibrant for decades without contributing pollutants to the indoor environment.

Why it matters

People spend up to 90% of their time indoors. The materials used on interior surfaces play a critical role in long-term health and comfort. By eliminating plastics and VOC-emitting components, KEIM Mineral Paints support:

• Healthier homes

• Safer schools and childcare centres

• Cleaner healthcare and aged care facilities

• More comfortable workplaces

Conclusion

KEIM Mineral Paints redefine what interior paint can be. By combining low VOC performance, breathability and exceptional durability, KEIM creates interiors that are not only beautiful, but genuinely healthier to live and work in.
