< 1 min read

Scuff Tuff™ Interior Waterbased Enamel has been selected as a 2024 Green Builder® Sustainable Product of the Year.

The awards were announced in the March-April 2024 special products and brands issue of The Green Builder.

The issue highlights the best sustainable products as well as the annual Brand Index, which ranks the industry’s greenest products and building trends. The Sustainable Product of the Year selections represent today’s most innovative products that make homes more efficient, resilient, healthy, intelligent and safe.

“Sherwin-Williams Scuff Tuff Interior Waterbased Enamel is a durable paint that stands up to wear and tear in high-traffic areas, while resisting burnishing even after frequent washing,” the magazine stated. “It is also GREENGUARD® certified for low chemical emissions, tested and evaluated to meet stringent chemical emission limits.

Scuff Tuff is designed to meet MPI standards and meets VOC regulations with less than 50 g/L VOCs. Beyond that, Scuff Tuff meets the MPI High Performance category for cleansability testing, and exceeds the scrub and sheen change requirements, with a minimum of 4,000 MPI scrubs with less than 20 percent change in sheen.

“This water-based enamel is available in flat, matte, eg-shel and semi-gloss finishes, along with multiple bases to meet the sheens and colors required. Scuff Tuff also tints using zero VOC colorants so that any color chosen will not raise the VOC of the paint. Scuff Tuff’s resistance to scratches also means fewer touch-ups and paint jobs, contributing to its sustainable appeal.”
