  1. Environment and legislation

  2. The future: What to expect ? • Environment will be the main force of influence on all future paint product development • VOC regulations in more countries • Lower max. VOC values in EU & NAFTA • Individual VOC values for each solvent? • Some solvents i.e. Xylene could become forbidden to use. • VOC values for total paint systems calculated pr. m² ? • The substitution principle to be exercised more strict • The cost/performance gap between solvent-borne and water-borne coatings will narrow

  3. The future:VOC Regulation in EU National Emission Ceiling on VOC, 2010 NEC EU’s Solvent Emission Directive 2001 - 2004 - 2007 SED National VOC-regulation* Product group VOC-limits VR OEM Decorative Marine Protective *VOC -limits: Austria (1995), UK (1998) *National Emission Limits: France, Portugal, Germany, Italy, Holland *VOC-tax: Switzerland

  4. The future:Sources for VOC-emissions * Petrol fumes/energy/ production/waste 18% Vegetation 22% Traffic 35% Use of solvents 25% (38-47% from paint) * Annual average. • Man-made emissions (EU): 10-12 mill tonns/year • Annual reduction in paint solvents > 1 mill tonn/year • Increased focus on emissions from traffic and use of solvents……

  5. Suggested by CEPE*- solvent levels by Product Group for EU 2007 Solvent Level (g/l) Prefabrication Primers 100 Sealercoats and Holding Primers 490 2-Pack Anticorrosive Primers and Intermediates 250 IOZ Coatings 420 Organic Zinc Primers 420 1-Pack Primers and Intermediates 380 2-Pack Finishes 380 1-Pack finishes 400 Surface Tolerant 250 Tank Linings 325 High Temperature Resistant 480 Intumescent Coatings 400 *by October 2004
