Features
Glob founder and artist Ashley Phelps, is gratified to offer parents, schools and teachers a safer choice for craft products. After working as a children’s art teacher, she searched high and low for truly green art supplies. With very few options on the market, she decided to make her own.
Ashley’s all-natural formulations for art, craft and body paints use only natural, botanical (even food-grade) color sources and organic extracts: plants, vegetables and herbs. The pigments are naturally vibrant and have been used safely and effectively for color since the beginning of time. Also, Glob offers the only natural, non-nano face paints available!
Safety
You may have noticed that arts and crafts products do not list ingredients. Consumers rely upon "non toxic" certification, believing that their art materials have undergone sufficient testing to ensure the products they use are safe. Don't let these labels fool you.
Art pigments (colors) are commonly made from petrochemicals, and the actual hazards of these materials are not always known. In the US, synthetic pigments that have never been tested for toxicity can be labeled "non-toxic." The rationale? There is no data to prove otherwise.
Arts and crafts paints also often contain a host of toxic ingredients like formaldehyde (a carcinogen), one of the most common paint preservatives. Paints may not only be hazardous to the consumer, but also the environment. Certified "non-toxic" pigments can still be toxic to fish and other wildlife.
Glob uses all natural food colors in their paints, which are sustainable and biodegradable, making them safe to wash down the sink and into our water supply. They also conform to the safety standards of the U.S., and the comprehensive requirements of Europe, Canada and Australia.
