Dulux Ecosure - why launch when you can't provide?

Shame on you Dulux! I wanted to use the new environmentally friendlier paint, just launched by Dulux at their trade centres, at the Hilton spa, and organised this with the client etc. The paint is being pushed through the media to trade at the moment, and is all over the internet. Specified all the paint colours, went down to the trade centre in Salford..... big problem. No paint. Not a drop. None to mix with, none due in. My question. What's the bloomin point of pushing a paint which you haven't put into stores yet!! So we had to go for the Diamond Matt, which is a fabulous paint, superb coverage, but without the eco credentials. Ah well, I tried!! And the colours Teal Tension and Natural Taupe 1 for the walls, and Natural Taupe 4 for the ceilings look ravishing :-)

What do you think?

I know there are other eco paints out there, but we had an arrangement to deal with Dulux, so hence the issue! But thanks for the tip, i have added them to my database x
