INDOOR
AIR QUALITY
There is no objective scientific evidence to show that carpet
poses any health risk to consumers.
-
All materials emit gasses from VOCs (Volatile Organic Compounds)
but carpets emit much lower levels than other common indoor
products and pose no threat to consumers. For example, plywood
emits twice as much VOC as carpets, wallpaper over 16 times
more, and paint 200 times more.
-
Carpet improves indoor air quality as it absorbs many common
airborne pollutants.
-
All materials used in carpet manufacturing are subject to
the closest scrutiny, and processes conform to the highest
environmental control standards.
