Environmental Statement Many consumers today wish to understand the impact their wide plank flooring selection will have on their internal and external environments. Carlisle is happy to provide wood flooring solutions that are gentle on the planet and which can contribute to a healthier interior environment. We can provide the following information to address common questions and concerns:
• It is not necessary for Carlisle unfinished or prefinished solid wood floors to be certified for CARB2, this applies only to engineered wood floors. • The Volatile Organic Compound (“VOC”) levels are not applicable for Carlisle prefinished wood floors. Once cured, our prefinished wood floors contain no measureable VOC’s. • No urea formaldehyde is added during the manufacturing process. • Carlisle 5/8” and 3/4” thick engineered wide plank floors are CARB2 compliant for formaldehyde emissions, which indicates that a product must have .05 ppm to meet guidelines. Carlisle floors have a rating of less than 0.008 ppm. CARB COMPLIANCE TESTING TEST METHOD: ASTM D6007-14 Conducted by HPVA Laboratories, Reston, VA Conducted: January 19, 2016 The following findings have been reported:
The Test Results Indicate a Value of BLQ BLQ stands for "Below Limit of Quantitation." The Limit of Quantitation is the lowest result to which this lab is able to accurately report, which in this case is 0.008 ppm. BLQ therefore means “less than 0.008 ppm”.
