GREENGUARD Gold Certification for RIM Office Furniture Collections
We are thrilled to announce that our Flexi, Victory, Space, Muuna, Lambda, Winx, and Edge collections have all received the prestigious GREENGUARD Gold Certification.
What is GREENGUARD Gold Certification?
GREENGUARD Gold Certification is an internationally recognized standard that ensures that products have low chemical emissions, contributing to healthier indoor air quality. This certification is especially valuable in environments like offices, schools, and healthcare facilities where people spend significant amounts of time and where air quality has a direct impact on health and well-being.
Why is This Certification Important?
Many materials used in furniture industry, such as foams, adhesives, coatings, and textiles, can release volatile organic compounds (VOCs) over time. VOCs, including substances like formaldehyde and other aldehydes, benzene, or toluene, are chemicals that evaporate at room temperature and can be harmful when inhaled in significant quantities. Long-term exposure to VOCs has been linked to a range of health problems, from headaches and allergies to more serious conditions such as respiratory irritation and even cancer.
By achieving GREENGUARD Gold Certification, our products meet stringent limits on VOC emissions, ensuring that they support a safer, healthier indoor environment. The “Gold” designation means our products comply with even stricter criteria, making them suitable for use in sensitive environments like schools and healthcare facilities, where occupant safety is a top priority.
Green Building Contributions
GREENGUARD Gold certified products contribute to achieving credits in green building certifications like LEED, WELL, and BREEAM, making them an excellent choice for architects and designers focused on sustainable projects.
We are proud to offer products that not only provide exceptional quality and comfort but also meet the highest standards of environmental and health sustainability. The GREENGUARD Gold certification marks an important milestone in our continued efforts to create furniture that enhances both the workspace and the well-being of those who use it.
