The GREENGUARD Certification Program gives assurance that products manufactured for use in indoor spaces meet strict chemical emissions limits, Products that have achieved GREENGUARD Certification are scientifically proven to meet some of the world’s most rigorous third-party chemical emissions standards, helping to reduce indoor air pollution and the risk of chemical exposure, improving the quality of the air in which the products are used. The standards are primarily for structure materials, finishes, interior furnishings, furniture, cleaning goods and electronic tools.

Indoor air quality (IAQ) is closely related to health, and is therefore recognized as an important concern for all inbuilt spaces. Volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions from building materials and furnishings is a major source of indoor air pollution. GREENGUARD Certification has been widely adopted as a trusted standard for low-emitting products.
