green isn't the only green color

Benjamin Moore has made your health and the earth's health one of their top priorities. They are continuously working hard to create healthier and healthier paints by lowering the percentage of VOCs (volatile organic compounds). These VOCs contain numerous chemicals, some of which may have short- and long-term adverse health effects. Why fill your home with harmful chemicals when you don't have to?

Available in over 3,300 colors, 3 sheens and an interior primer, Benjamin Moore brings us ben, a low VOC paint with a personality. ben has scored Benjamin Moore's Green Promise which means that it meets or exceeds the strictest of environmental requirements such as LEED. Find your color, paint your room then get online and share your color's story.Benjamin Moore has even one-upped itself since you can now get anyone of their 3,000+ colors or any other color you want color matched with zero VOCs thanks to their Natura line of paints. Just like ben, Natura carries Benjamin Moore's Green Promise. With no noticable odor, superior coverage, a recoatable dry time of only one hour, and an easily maintainable and durable finish, Natura makes painting the easiest and healthiest it has ever been. Natura is the only way to go if you are painting your baby's nursery or kid's room, especially if you are pregnant. Now if only they can figure out how to produce it for less than $50 a gallon.
