Amoriguard is a water-based paint with fillers based on recycled industrial waste.
The colour has an effective 70% mass of solids, which occupy a volume of at least 55% excluding water.
It was invented in South Africa by Mulalo Doyoyo and co-developed by Ryan Purchase.
Substances in the paint such as volatile organic compounds, ammonia, formaldehyde, lead, alkyl phenol ethoxylate and glycol are low in quantity or absent.
[1][2] It is manufactured below critical pigment volume concentration (CPVC) which means that most voids between pigment particles in the dried film are filled with solid particles as opposed to air.
