Auro

Auro are unusual in their environmental credentials. For example, much of the ingredients derived from plants that are used in their products are organically grown close to the factory and any waste product and excess paint is composted. The factory is also run on renewable energy.

Their range of highest quality products is particularly comprehensive in this section and is well suited to the DIY user as well as the professional. It includes floor and furniture waxes, varnishes and worktop oils, fillers, cleaners and paint strippers, garden furniture oil and even glues and wallpaper paste.

Auro products are based on natural ingredients including plant oils such as orange, eucalypyus and rosemary. All ingredients are fully disclosed and full technical specifications are provided on the technical sheets available on this site. Auro wood finishes are micro-porous so they don’t flake, peel or blister and are easily maintainable. Auro's use of natural and plant based ingredients means that allergy sufferers and people who are chemically sensitive are more able to tolerate their products.

Perhaps it is not surprising, then, that in 2003 Auro was voted ‘Favourite Ethical (DIY) Product’ by readers of ‘Ethical Consumer’ Magazine! Several Auro products have also been recommended by the stringent German environmental ‘Oko Test’ Magazine.
