GREENGUARD Certificates are the certificates that are especially given for building materials, finishing materials, furniture, cleaning materials and electronic equipment used indoors, identifying how much the chemicals in the products evaporate at room temperature and mix into the indoor, in terms of indoor air quality, and whether they are within the limit values.
Aiming to use materials that emit chemicals at a level that does not endanger human health indoors, GREENGUARD certification is a globally accepted certificate recognized by the most comprehensive sustainable building programs and laws.
Enhancing indoor air quality is vital for human health. Therefore, it is crucial to apply GREENGUARD-certified products, testing more than 10,000 chemicals to ensure that they are healthy and safe indoors.
"GREENGUARD Gold" also contains additional health-based chemical criteria. It guarantees that the products release low levels of VOCs so that they can be used in service buildings such as schools and healthcare facilities.
GREENGUARD Certification is accepted in more than 400 building programs and standards, including WELL, fitwel®, LEED®, CHPS, ASHRAE, Green Globes, NAHB, and IgCC.
