All
Anderson hardwood flooring products are now GREENGUARD Children & Schools
Certified. To achieve the certification, Anderson hardwoods were screened for
more than 10,000 different volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and were verified
to meet the required California chronic reference exposure levels including
13.5 parts per billion formaldehyde.
Don Finkell, Anderson’s president, said his company was proud to be recognized
“for meeting their prestigious GREENGUARD Children & Schools standard. This
achievement not only reinforces Anderson’s
commitment to optimum indoor air quality, but also ensures these hardwood
styles are eligible for low emission credit under the respective commercial and
residential LEED certification programs.”
“Anderson’s
achievement of GREENGUARD Children & Schools Certification demonstrates a
solid commitment to occupant health and sustainability. Though indoor air
quality affects everyone, children are especially at risk for negative effects
of chemical exposure,” added Henning Bloech, executive director of
GEI.
