Domus line mineral paints are scientifically proven to be a healthy, natural alternative to acrylic paints. They are the only paints certified by Cradle to Cradle and have obtained other certifications verifying their low toxicity. Mineral paints form a crystalline structure that allows them to breathe, making them more durable and mold resistant than acrylic paints which form a sealed coating. ROMA mineral paints contain no VOCs, solvents, or other toxins and are considered the safest and healthiest option for indoor painting.

The existing laws and regulations do not fully regulate the chemicals and contaminants
in your paints. The U.S. Government only regulates the VOC quantity for claims of zero
VOC, but they do not regulate the effects of these compounds for indoor air quality. Most
modern paints are acrylics which contain acrylic resin, water, clay, talc, calcium carbonates,
and additives to improve performance, which may contain VOCs, phthalates, formaldehyde,
organic solvents, styrene, amines, free monomers, APEO, and cosolvents such as PEG, PG,
POE, endocrine disruptors and biocides. TVOCs (total of all VOCs from interior sources)
and additives are where the majority of pollution occurs contributing to and causing cancer,
asthma, Sick Building Syndrome (SBS), Multiple Sclerosis (MS), and other endocrine and
immunological effects, not to mention what they do to the environment.
ROMA is the only paint company to have obtained the most prestigious certifications
and scientific reports verifying our claims. We have obtained Cradle to Cradle®
(C2C)
certification version 3.0 bronze level for 13 of our interior and exterior paint products;
completed Healthy Product Declarations™ (HPD); completed Eurofins VOC requirements
for 28 day testing and asthma-free and hypoallergenic testing; and obtained a scientific
study that certifies our marketing claims of no chemical toxicity.
“The comparison study of 26 paint samples demonstrates that paint VOC content should not be used as a proxy for
paint VOC emissions into indoor air. There is no correlation between the two measures. For example, measurable levels
of formaldehyde and/or ethylene glycol (in the research studies) were observed in the emissions from almost half of all
paint samples tested, demonstrating that low VOC content is not necessarily indicative of acceptable VOC emissions for
individual compounds with known health effects. Thus, using VOC content as an predictor of VOC emissions may provide
building designers, owners and operators, or occupants with a false sense of security regarding the quality of the indoor air.”

4. We make bio-logical or mineral paints, a game changer for healthy environments and a
healthy planet. Mineral paints form a crystalline structure that bonds with the surface. You
can see their molecular crystalline shape (see diagram1
and microscope detail of a silicate2
).
This crystalline shape is just like that of a honeycomb3
.
These shapes indicate the natural structure of how our paint bonds when applied on
a wall. The molecular shape permits a mineral paint to breathe and these crystalline
structures mimic the reoccurring patterns commonly found in nature.
Why is a breathable wall important? Because it permits moisture and
air to move more freely in a closed environment. Mineral paints
absorb CO2
acting like a magnet to attract air thus completing the
cycle of micro-crystallization permitting a mineral paint to become
harder with time. This creates a more durable paint and mold
resistant system.
Acrylic paints form an adhesive structure that sticks to the surface. There is no crystalline
shape (see diagram4
and microscope detail of a polymer chains5
). As you can see the
molecular pattern is closed. This means that an acrylic paint is not breathable. Acrylic paint
companies make claims that they are natural, organic, non-toxic, environmental friendly, but
this is not backed by science. Acrylic paints’ molecular structures are not BIO or natural.
Painting your walls with an acrylic paint means that they will never breathe because it seals
the environment. Painting acrylic is similar to wrapping your walls with cellophane, thus
creating a perfect environment that traps humidity, toxins, and promotes mold growth.
If your health and that of your family is important, then the only natural approach to
protecting your future and that of your planet is to choose ROMA’s Domus mineral paint.

NATURE AND CANNOT BE IMITATED.

“The ROMA selection of all natural mineral based solvent (petroleum) free coating systems have been our companies #1 choice for our
growing clientele of both chemically sensitive clients and our clients that are aware of the derogatory effects of compromised IAQ (Indoor
Air Quality). The outstanding improvement in indoor air these products afford are also unparalleled in surface coverage, easy of mixing and
affordability -- literally taking away all the objections to going 100% “petro-free” in the air we breath at home and in our work environ-
ments.”

5. ROMA PAINTS WORK COMPLETELY DIFFERENT.
Breathability
The micro-crystalline structure of our mineral paints allows air and moisture vapor to permeate
through the surface into the substrate, providing a healthy exchange of air. ROMA’s Domus line
mineral paint can provide up to 95% of permeability when applied to non-painted virgin product
surfaces.
Durability
Because of the micro-crystalline bond formed by our mineral paints they create a more durable
coating. Durable coatings mean less frequent applications of paint, saving material and labor costs, as
well as reducing carbon footprint.
Luminosity & Color
ROMA’s Domus line mineral paint is luminous because of dynamic color refraction due to the mineral
content. Thus color palates are more vibrant providing more depth and light. Using earth oxides tints
with our mineral paints allows UV stability and provides decades of endurance without color loss
unlike acrylic which is not UV stable and can show significant fading of color over time.
Mold Resistant
ROMA’s Domus line mineral paints are inherently resistant to mold and fungal growth due to their
high alkalinity. Mineral paints chemical structure and breathability helps prevent the growth of mold
on paint surfaces as compared to acrylic paints which oxidize very quickly and are thus prone to mold
within their molecular structure.
Odorless & Toxic Free
Our mineral paints contain no solvents, are almost completely free of TVOC (Interior Air Emissions)
and completely free VOC (Exterior Air Emissions), odor free, hypoallergenic and asthma-free. Acrylic
paints can contain a combination of petrochemicals, phthalates, and biocides, high levels of TVOC,
and always a certain amount of VOC.
Fire-Resistant
ROMA’s Domus line mineral paints are inherently non-combustible and have excellent resistance as
well as reaction to fire. Potassium silicate has been used for centuries to treat wood products so that
they are resistant to burning. Acrylic paints contain petrochemicals and acrylic which are more likely
to burn in a fire.
Sustainable
Potassium silicate is the primary binder in our mineral paints, an abundant, natural, raw material.
Acrylic paints are derived from a chemical process of petrol refinement to create resin that when
mixed with certain coalescing agents, creates a paint product.

We value beauty in all living things. Be-
cause our products are made from natural
crystalline materials they have luminosity,
depth, light and beauty that acrylic paints
cannot have. ROMA offers color matching
to major brand palettes. We use earth
oxides to tint our paint products, increas-
ing the function of light refraction. It’s our
collaboration with nature and science to
provide you with the best alternatives for a
true Cradle to Cradle approach.
“Over the last five years since it’s inception we have used
ROMA paint products on virtually every project we work
on. As a firm specializing in high-end residential homes
all over the country, we find the diversity and beauty of
the line indispensable. We use ROMA on wood flooring,
wood wall surfaces, cabinetry, stone, masonry, plaster
and sheetrock to achieve the overall patina and luminosity
that we had been unable to access with any other supplier
or product line out there. I walk in a room where we used
ROMA on the walls and it truly looks and feels divergently
different from other projects using acrylic paint products
due to its light refracting qualities. I can see the difference
and my clients do as well!! The fact that it is a clean, natu-
ral, healthy product is just the icing on the cake.”
We set out to create paint products that
will completely replace acrylic paints. We
want to change the way the world uses
paints and the best way we can do that is to
make them affordable and cost competitive.

distributor for detailed pricing.
