Triton Paints Get Lead-Free Certification

Saturday, March 02, 2024





Are you into building? DIY? Or just fixing things? Chances are, you're probably going to use paint in one or more of these projects and in the Philippines. The direction is to make sure that lead would not be used in manufacturing paint. Recently, a Philippine company just earned their certification for being Lead Safe Paint particularly the ones under Roosevelt Chemical Incorporated.

The dangers of lead in paint has been already studied, proven and should be eliminated. Human health is prime, which is why we should act now. Even with laws passed, the Philippines is just one of a couple of countries that still sell them, but it should be stopped.



Hon. Gilbert Gonzales says "This is my second time attending this kind of forum with paint manufacturers. I'd like to congratulate Triton Philippines for achieving this. This has a great effect for human health, lead safe paints and the quality of it must coincide with environmental safety. They are aware of the ill effects of lead paints, the civil society organizations and our partners are slowly moving towards safe products. In everything we do, we hope we gain more businesses that look at the environment friendly products and why it should be the norm in the country."

Richard Cruz from DILG says "Paints are now lead free, it will help not just the folks who live in homes but the community they belong to."

Charity Agbayani from OPDS-DILG says "Traditionally, it contains harmful chemicals and with the improvements,  toxins that are in paint should not be a problem anymore. Our homes and workplace should be lead free, so generations to come would not experience the harmful effects of it anymore."




Aileen Lucero of ECO Waste Coalition "Triton paints have passed standards and now proves how they are the right kind of paints. This is one concrete way of protecting our children from the harmful effects of lead in paints. The DENR, DILG, and you are all moving in establishing standards that would phase out lead containing paints in the coming years. The advisory which called government units to not purchase paint that contain lead is a step forward and we congratulate them all for doing what is right."

Solon Sy the VP for Sales and Marketing of Roosevelt Chemical Corporation says "We have always felt this is a step forward to the lead safe certification. This is our commitment to our partners, customers, for a sustainable future. This has been the result of expansive research, and we know that families will benefit from it. We are stewards of environment and health, and these lead safe paints will be at safe spaces. Thank you for your trust and making Triton Paints the right kind of paint "

Reginald Yu the President of Philippine Paints and Coatings Association says "We celebrate the remarkable achievement. In behalf of our organization, our heartfelt congratulations for being certified lead free. I've had the pleasure of witnessing their hard work first hand. They have been a pillar of excellence in the community and have earned our trust and respect. This highlights their commitment to excellence. They are now a benchmark for paint manufacturing. As industry leaders, family friends, their support have always been commendable. Our member companies want to push for industry goals, for the benefit of generations to come. We are assured there will be more, congratulations once again to the Sy Family, may your success inspire others."

Teodoro Cayetano the Municipal Engineer from Roxas Palawan adds "The efforts of the Triton Family and Roosevelt Chemicals did not just comply, but have provided a reiteration to executive orders and ordinances to become lead free in our town. It was just recently approved, ad we will be a partner to follow provisions of the law. I'll make sure to follow requirements and support Triton in using them in our projects, as we find their efforts phenomenal for our country and Roxas."

Here's part of the press conference on video earlier. Please, enjoy!



Triton, Rosco, Primecoat, Acri-Lux, Lotus paints and their other products are now lead safe certified. You get premium quality finish, sustainable and eco friendly products from Roosevelt Chemical Inc. Because of innovation, they were able to make this safe, economical, and quality. Their commitment to your safety is their priority.

Congratulations Triton Paints!

Change the Look of Your Home with these Shopee 12.12 Big Christmas Sale Finds!

Sunday, December 12, 2021

I've always been doing DIY wand crafting stuff to change the look of my room. Needless to say, the gray and white walls that I have was pretty plain, classy (of course), but I felt that it needed to get spruced up especially since it's been my background for many days over Zoom meetings and press conferences. We look silly in those virtual backgrounds so I went ahead and checked out Shopee to see what I could find.

Shopee's got everything and if you're raring to spruce up the look of your home, there are things that you can purchase in the app that doesn't cost an arm and a leg. 

Now I've seen this vendor idawallpaper.ph on the Shopee app and saw they'e got 3D Vinyl Wallpaper Foam Bricks that's both waterproof and has got lots of texture. It fits my monochrome theme in the room and would provide a different look for the walls I have in here. I was thinking to have this as a feature wall so it wouldn't look like I'm just in a plain wall when seen on meetings. Aside from that, this doesn't look cheap and it is very affordable (at 15 to 68 pesos a piece). I've also seen that they're doing a BIG MIDNIGHT SALE on the Shopee 12.12 Big Christmas Sale event, so I might actually be better off just putting this on my cart and check out 12am on that date. If I get a lot of it, I'll save a bunch without having to permanently having it as a fixture on the wall or harming the actual paint in it. It stays with an adhesive which would be apt for the time I'll have it there. I bet this would also soften sound coming from outside when I'm recording inside my room (perfect for unboxing videos!). 

You may purchase it here https://shp.ee/atnrc75 or get the Hexagonal Mirror Acrylic Wall Sticker so you have accents on it. You may get that here https://shp.ee/2s9psf5 and I hope I have given you enough suggestions so you can start doing great things for your room today.

 But again, I think it would be better to just put them in your cart for the meantime and check out on 12.12 around 12am - 2am because there are tons of vouchers you can use for FREE Shipping and discounts too. Go download it today on the App Store and Google Play so you can add them on your cart now and conveniently check out on the day itself. I'm doing that right now!

The CREST Loft Bed by Home Suite

Thursday, September 09, 2021


It's been a while since I've featured something by Home Suite, but this one is actually a nice thing to show you especially if you're in a room with small square footage. If you're working or studying, chances are, you're going to spend hours on an office chair, an office table, but you're still figuring out how to do it when you've got no space. Well, you don't have to ask a magician to make one because there exists a "CREST Loft Bed". This is made by Home Suite which has all gotten their products in major malls nationwide.

It's a space saving solution for those who need to study, work and sleep in a small space without feeling cramped or unsafe. It's made of steel frames, pretty smooth and stable. They also got this powder coated so it doesn't corrode or chip when accidents happen. It can also be cleaned easy, has space for shelves so you can put your knick knacks or books on top and some lighting on the side. It also has side lining with pouches so you can store gadgets and other stuff when you need to.  It's also easy to assemble, doesn't take a genius, simple and sturdy.

Filipino craftsmanship done right, reasonably priced, I want this for myself no joke! If you want one, call +632 8-361-1127 / 8-546-0563 from 9AM to 5PM Mondays to Saturdays. Else, you can visit leading malls where they are also displayed.
