What are VOCs ?

Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are the gases emitted from both natural and manufactured everyday objects. VOCs include a variety of chemicals, some of which may have short-or long-term adverse health effects.

Indoor air quality has a significant impact on our well-being, especially considering that we spend an average of 90% of our time indoors.

Tarkett’s Pledge:

Since 2011, Tarkett has been at the forefront of low and ultra-low VOC emission flooring solutions, surpassing even the strictest global standards by 10 to 100 times.

Our commitment to indoor air quality extends to innovative installation techniques, such as Greenlay™, a 98% glue-free method for our Omnisports PVC sports floorings, as well as low-maintenance products, thereby reducing VOC presence in indoor spaces.

With Tarkett Sports’ floorings, you can breathe clearer air more easily, thanks to our ultra-low VOC emissions, measuring less than 10μg /m3 after 28 days, contributing to lung protection and overall well-being. Beyond industry standards, we set our own standards for indoor air quality.

Our concern for transparency and credibility is evidenced by independent verification from Eurofins, a leading organisation specialised in air quality testing, certifying our products to Gold and Platinum levels for indoor air quality.

These achievements underscore our commitment to ensuring that Tarkett flooring not only meets but exceeds expectations, offering our customers the peace of mind of making a health-conscious choice.
