Nontoxic Paint. Most paint makers tout their green credentials by citing their products’ VOC content. Mythic says its paints are not only VOC-free — they’re also free of toxic ingredients and suspected carcinogens (such as formaldehyde and crystalline silica) routinely found in other paints. The company offers three paint lines: Black Label ($62 per gallon), Classic ($48 per gallon), and Pro ($30 per gallon). Southern Diversified Products, 888/714-9422, mythicpaint.com.
