A Guide to VOCs and Compliance

VOCs are categorized into two distinct categories: biogenic and anthropogenic. Biogenic VOCs are naturally occurring and are not harmful to humans nor the environment. The most common type of biogenic VOC comes from plants. VOCs are highly regulated in the United States, and wood flooring professionals must adhere to these regulations. This is true at all levels of the supply chain, from manufacturing, to distribution, to retail, to contracting, and even importing. The National Wood Flooring Association has detailed information about VOCs available through NWFA University, an online training platform that is convenient and affordable.
