MetroPaint is a recycled-content latex paint (RCLP) that has been produced in Portland, Oregon, United States by Metro since 1992. Metro receives post-consumer latex paint (PCLP) from garbage customers. Technicians inspect the paint for recyclability: recyclable paint is sorted by color, and unrecyclable paint is disposed in landfills. The recyclable paint is then color-corrected. Additives are blended in, and the paint is then filtered, performance tested, packaged into pails and cans, and sold back to the public at a price intended to recover the program's labor and material costs.
