CARB certification, although mandatory only in California, has been assumed as the U.S. gold standard influencing many European manufacturers of semi-finished or finished products to control formaldehyde emissions.
What it guarantees for those who buy
- Healthier air in the home: reduced levels of formaldehyde help improve indoor air quality, decreasing potential irritation to the respiratory tract, eyes and skin.
- Quality beyond the standard: although European regulations impose limits for emissions (e.g., class E1 according to European regulations), CARB offers an additional guarantee with more stringent thresholds.
- Market differentiation: a CARB-certified product communicates that the company has chosen to adopt additional standards for customer and environmental health.
- Traceability and transparency: you can request CARB certificate of compliance to verify the parameters tested by accredited laboratory.
