What It Means
Our Low VOC Certification, built on the CDPH Standard, verifies that products are designed to minimize harmful emissions and support healthier indoor spaces. Through independent, third-party testing, we provide credible proof that items such as furniture, flooring, adhesives, and coatings meet stringent VOC emission benchmarks
This program is globally recognized, ISO/IEC 17065 accredited, and comparable to leading certifications like UL GREENGUARD GOLD and Green Label Plus (GLP) by CRI, USA.
Why VOCs Matter
Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) are chemicals that easily evaporate at room temperature. They are present in everyday materials—paints, sealants, furniture, flooring, and cleaning products. Prolonged exposure can negatively impact indoor air quality and human health. Certification offers manufacturers, architects, and end users confidence that products are safe and compliant.
