- But how can they be best used in practice?
- Are they applicable to all building types and substrates?
- Are specialist skills necessary?

Join Alliance for Sustainable Building Products (ASBP) and expert members of our Paints & Finishes Group for a practical ‘how to’ session on using natural paints and finishes, with case studies, demonstrations, top tips, FAQs and more.
