ASTM Paint Standards

ASTM International is a leading organization in the development of paint standards. These standards play a crucial role in ensuring product quality and consistency across the chemical industry. Some of the most requested ASTM paint standards include D4236 for safety, D7091 for terminology, and D6886 for VOC content.

By adhering to these standards, manufacturers, suppliers, and end-users in the paint industry can benefit from improved product performance and compliance with regulations.

You can gain access to the ASTM Paint standards you need via PDF or digital access. For digital access, ASTM Compass is our engineering management platform that provides convenient access to ASTM paint and aromatic standards along with those from other leading standards development organizations.

ASTM Compass goes beyond paint standards by providing access to standards from other organizations, such as AATCC for textiles and AENOR, the Spanish standardization body.

This feature allows companies to access a wide range of relevant standards from a single digital platform, streamlining the process of ensuring compliance across multiple standards requirements.

By accessing engineering standards from multiple leading SDOs and technical journals through ASTM Compass, companies can gain a competitive edge and make informed decisions based on the most current information available.
