Do you think environmental protection is an important thing? Will those floors use environmentally friendly materials? You can read this article.
Flooring is one of the building materials. So what are environmentally friendly building materials?
❶Basically non-toxic and harmless.
❷Low toxicity and low emission type.
❸Materials whose toxic substances cannot be determined and assessed by scientific technology and testing methods.
How to identify?
Smell - colorless irritating gas.
This is very important! If the formaldehyde content is relatively low, generally we cannot distinguish the smell of formaldehyde. But this does not mean that the floor does not have formaldehyde. We suggest that customers also rely on the test results.
Method 1: Look at the certification-certification mark
Method 2: Read the report-test report from an authoritative organization
Method 3: Look at the grade-environmental protection grade
The truth about flooring’s environmental rating is…
The environmental protection level is the level of formaldehyde emission limit. What are the common F-level, M-level, E-level and CARB certifications?
Class F certification-Japan
From low to high, there are four levels: F★, F★★, F★★★, and F★★★★.
F☆（≤5mg/L）
F☆☆（≤1.5mg/L）
F☆☆☆（≤0.5mg/L）
F☆☆☆☆（≤0.3mg/L）
F-star standard The higher the star rating, the lower the formaldehyde emission. F☆☆☆☆ is the highest level of Japanese environmental standards.
Class M certification-Finland
There are three levels: M3, M2, and M1, with M1 being the highest level.
Class E certification - Europe
Divided into two levels: E2 and E1.
E2≤1.5mg/L
E1≤0.5mg/L
E-Class Certification-China
The E-class standard is divided into two levels: E2 and E1. Later, E0 class was added. In 2021, ENF class standard was added.
E1≤0.124mg/m³
E0≤0.05mg/m³
ENF≤0.0025mg/m³
CARB certification - United States
Three levels: P1, P2, NAF level. P1≤0.08PPM, P2≤0.05PPM, NAF grade≤0.04PPM.
The highest level is NAF, also known as formaldehyde-free exemption certification.
Our common environmentally friendly floors: solid wood floors, bamboo floors, etc.
Frankly, if you consider the environmental performance of flooring. Consider plastic flooring.
Maybe you are wondering... is plastic environmentally friendly?
What is plastic?
Plastic is a plastic material made of high molecular polymers. There are: polyethylene, polypropylene, polyvinyl chloride, polyformaldehyde, polycarbonate, etc.
We can tell you without reservation! We cannot simply define whether plastic is toxic or non-toxic, environmentally friendly or not. There are specific analyzes based on specific materials.
Which plastic floors are environmentally friendly and healthy?
Stone Plastic Composite Flooring
The stone powder and PVC in SPC flooring are environmentally friendly materials. The floor is safe for people and the environment because it doesn't have harmful substances like formaldehyde and benzene.

One of the most significant benefits of choosing environmentally friendly flooring?
Safer
The environmental rating of floors is judged based on the release of formaldehyde.
Formaldehyde: Formaldehyde is a colorless and irritating gas that is irritating to human eyes and nose. Many studies have found that higher levels of formaldehyde in the air are more harmful to humans.
Choosing a floor with a higher environmental protection level means that the concentration of formaldehyde released is lower. It also means that it will be safer during the installation and use of the floor.
We never deny that formaldehyde slowly releases. High temperature, humidity, open windows, and air purifiers speed up formaldehyde release and lower formaldehyde concentration. But we still sincerely recommend that you consider purchasing environmentally friendly flooring materials.
