Most interior wall paints in UK are formulated without solvents; and are commonly known as low odour emulsion paints.  

The trim paints and stains market is still divided between solvent-based and water-based products. The odour associated with use of solvent-based coatings tend to  linger which can be an  irritation especially if the room is not properly ventilated. In such cases, care should be taken to ensure sufficient ventilation during and immediately after the paint job is complete.
