For painting interior walls, emulsion paint is typically regarded as the optimal choice due to its user-friendly application and swift drying time, which allows for efficient project completion. One of its significant advantages is its low odour, which makes it suitable for indoor environments, particularly in homes and offices where ventilation might be limited.
Being water-based, emulsion paint not only simplifies the cleanup process with just soap and water but also minimizes the release of volatile organic compounds (VOCs), contributing to improved air quality indoors.
For areas that experience high foot traffic or require enhanced durability, choosing finishes such as satin or semi-gloss is advisable. These finishes offer enhanced resistance to wear and stains, making them ideal for hallways, kitchens, and bathrooms where surfaces are frequently cleaned and exposed to moisture. Additionally, their reflective qualities can enhance the visual appeal of a room, adding depth and character to the overall decor.
Some sample text from this document reads:
'Knee damage (from kneeling)'
• Musculoskeletal knee problems may occur if body weight is predominantly on the knees.
• Provision of suitable PPE for knee protection, either in the form of workwear with integral knee protection (recommended) or independent knee pads
• Raise work off the floor when possible to eliminate kneeling or squatting
• Avoid remaining in one posture for extended lengths of time
• Sit on the toolbox instead of kneeling or squatting where possible
