Thanks to our partners at Forest Recycling Project we have a new stock of quality recycled paint available at our shop in Islington. Many colours, matt, gloss, varnishes and much more available to Community Groups and individuals with a history of Homelessness, Drug/Alcohol, Mental Health or any other complex need at just £1 per litre.

Unit 8 Clarendon Buildings

020 7700 2498

Open: Monday to Friday 10am to 5pm – contact Howard on 020 7700 2498 to arrange an appointment

We stock:

• Emulsion paint for walls and ceilings (vinyl matt and silk)
• Kitchen and bathroom paint
• Paint for interior and exterior wood and metal (gloss, satinwood and eggshell)
• Undercoats and primers
• Masonry paint for exterior brickwork
• Varnishes and woodstains
• Floor and tile paint

Reclaimed paint is available in a wide range of colours and sizes – from 750ml to 10 litres.  A range of ‘as new’ paint donated from commercial sources is also available.

We have a high demand for white and magnolia emulsion paint so occasionally have a limited supply of these types of paint. However, we always have a stock of emulsions, glosses, satinwoods and eggshells in a wide range of colours for up to 80% cheaper when compared to buying new paint from commercial DIY stores.

A membership scheme is available for not-for-profit organisations requiring a large volume of reclaimed paint, offering further savings.

We hope to meet you at our project but should you not be able to make it to us below is a list of other recycled paint outlets.
