ENVIRONMENTALLYSUSTAINABLE
MATERIALS.

The raw materials used to manufacture ourproducts feature a reduced environmental
impact, with certificates proving it.

Environmental Product Declaration
The Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) is
an international certification that assesses theenvironmental impact of products taking into
account the life-cycle, the absence of polluting
emissions and other relevant environmentalinformation.

Cradle to Cradle Gold
International certification that recognises
product sustainability by evaluating
material safety, reuse potential, use ofrenewable energy, water management
and the company’s social responsibility.

Global GreenTag GreenRate Level A
International certification that analyzes thesafety and environmental toxicity of products,
assessing areas such as resource use, wastereduction, greenhouse footprint and wateruse. All these aspects are carefully addressedat Graphenstone, having obtained the highest
level within this certification (Level A).

excellence awarded to those

Due to their natural and ecologicalcomposition, the raw materials used tomanufacture Graphenstone products are
not only free of toxic components but also
help in the reduction of air pollution. In thisway, healthier indoor and outdoor spaces
are achieved.

CO2 Absorption Declaration
Study that proves that Graphenstone’s
lime-based paints absorb CO2 from theenvironment during their carbonation
process. In this line, three 15-litre
buckets of Graphenstone paint absorb
the same amount of CO2 as an adulttree in one year.

Iberian Association of Photocatalysis
Graphenstone is a member of theassociation that brings together building
material manufacturers with a focus onphotocatalysis. Photocatalytic paints purify
the environment through the incidenceof light on them. In this way, they reduce
urban pollution and eliminate odours
from domestic animals or tobacco.

Positive carbon footprint
The carbon footprint is an environmental
indicator that measures the greenhousegases emitted by a product, personor organization. Having a positive
carbon footprint means that, when
the company's products and actions
are combined, Graphenstone has apositive impact on the climate and theenvironment. In this way, the company
is aligned with the objectives of the Paris
Agreement on climate change.

All this highlights the differentiating factor ofGraphenstone from other products in the paint andbuilding sector, as it contributes to a more efficientuse of resources and a higher level of environmental
protection.

ENERGY
SAVINGSAND
EFFICIENCYGraphenstone paints combine lime andgraphene technology in a unique formula that
we call Graphenstone Technology.
This combination of materials contributes toextending the paint's shelf life, generating
greater energy savings, regulating andimproving the temperature distribution ofrooms.

Graphenstone Premium products are free of
VOC emissions. Volatile organic compounds,or VOCs, are toxic in suspension that areusually released through the use of solventsor plastic paints. Our products, being mineralbased, prevent the emission of these harmful
substances. Dozens of tests and VOC analyses
guarantee the quality of the air after applying
our paints.

Solar Reflectance Index
Graphenstone products featurehigh solar reflection rates,
meaning that their materials do
not heat up as much, thereby
reducing energy consumption.

Indoor Air Comfort Gold
This certification guarantees that therequirements for low VOC emissions are metand demonstrates the company's focus oncontributing to the creation of healthier spaces
with improved air quality. The certificate
also guarantees compliance with emission
requirements in several European and non-EUcountries, such as the French Class A+.

to improve the green certification ofa building. Graphenstone materials
contribute positively to obtain green
building certifications such as LEED,BREEAM, WELL or Passivhaus.
