More information:

The product is Product Health Declaration PLATINUM HEALTH.

The scope of certification includes Polymer Engineering HPA ¬Hard Set Plank Adhesive, Polymer Engineering UFA¬ Universal Flooring Adhesive, Polymer Engineering TRP- Temperature Resistant Plank Adhesive, Polymer Engineering CTA- Pressure Sensitive Adhesive

Issues of Concern/Red Lights (if needed) The products have successfully passed the relevant GreenTag Standard's Cautionary Assessment Process and no Issues of Concern or Red Light Comments exist regarding the toxicity of the products.

The products contains low amount of Isoparaffin which may be fatal if swallowed and enters airways. Once the glue is used for flooring adhesion, the exposure to end users is very unlikely. The risk is more likely to happen during the manufacturing stage. RLA polymer provided sufficient evidence for their Occupational Health and Safety System which reduces the risks during the manufacturing stage. RLA Polymers provided a low VOC emission test report, indicating a minimal risk of inhalation exposure for end users under typical use conditions.

Global GreenTag International Standard V4.1.
