Tox Control - The seal for emission-tested furniture coatings

Tox Control - The seal for emission-tested furniture coatings

The interaction of various pollutants indoors, even in small quantities, causes complaints such as headaches, lack of concentration, irritation of the respiratory tracts. Since many of these hazardous substances can also originate from the furniture, the coating is tested on a neutral substrate with regard to its emission behaviour. Our emission-tested products receive a Tox Control certificate. The test criteria catalogue for furniture and all associated parts and cured coatings contains the following focal points, among others:

  • TVOC= sum of all volatile residual solvents (C6-C16) after 28 days
  • SVOC= sum of all volatile, long-chain residual solvents (C16-C22) after 28 days
  • Carcinogenic substances
  • Terpene
  • Aldehydes
