PT Mowilex expands beyond its high-viscosity paints to high-quality ready-to-use paints, sustaining its credibility with applicators and homeowners and remaining competitive in the market.
SAN ANTONIO, June 4, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Frost & Sullivan recently assessed the paints and coatings industry and, based on its findings, recognizes PT Mowilex with the 2024 Indonesian Company of the Year Award. The company is an industry-leading premium paints and coatings producer that is revolutionizing industry practices and standards with an unwavering commitment to sustainability. PT Mowilex is the first carbon-neutral paints and coatings company and a pioneer in eco-friendly products, introducing the first water-based paints to the market. The company sets consistent precedents for sustainable practices within the industry, notably producing paints free from toxic substances or any other harmful materials, such a mercury, and using organic dyes as a safer alternative for lead. PT Mowilex is the first company to establish voluntary volatile organic compound (VOC) labeling standards based on the South Coast Air Quality Management District guidelines, which are the most stringent air quality regulations in the United States.
PT Mowilex maintains an ultra-low VOC or zero VOC standard across all its products, minimizing harmful emissions and ensuring healthy indoor air quality. The company diligently measures the VOC content of its products, employing several approaches, including independent lab tests. Furthermore, PT Mowilex prioritizes quality and environmental responsibility in its products. The company offers high-grade exterior acrylic paint with an unprecedented 18-year warranty in the Indonesian market, promoting prolonged building protection and minimizing homeowners' and developers' carbon footprint. In 2023, PT Mowilex introduced an innovative bio-based paint, NaturalleTM, which replaces petroleum-based resin with agricultural oils, eliminating formaldehyde emissions from building coatings and reducing indoor air toxicity. Additionally, the company launched Recycled Paint, developed by repurposing materials from returned paint such as titanium dioxide, which are typically energy-intensive to manufacture. Formulated with 40% premium recycled paint, the new product facilitates a 60% reduction in carbon footprint compared to similar quality paint products.
