Well to begin with B65 is our post code, in the depths of The Black Country, the home of engineering and the birth place of the industrial revolution.

We make solvent based industrial coatings which is a challenge in today’s Green and getting Greener environment. But you are either on side, or you face a bleak future.

At B65 Thomas Howse Paints is a good way down the path of replacing all wash downs solvents with a water-based solution that will revolutionise our shop floor, further improved working conditions, further improvements in health & safety and VOC readings that will fall to the floor. In addition investment in new energy efficient production machinery has significantly reduced our energy usage.

We are working on the ISO14001 Environmental Accreditation and working with our local community to be the best neighbours we can be. We work with our staff to help develop and promote “walk or bike or bus or car share to work”.

We recycle 100% of our metal, paper & board and solvent waste. The plastics we can re-cycle are re-cycled and we are close to near zero land fill. Monday to Thursday we close at 4.30pm and on Friday we close at 2.30pm to help try and take our traffic out of the congestion and rush.
