Certifications

Products that have achieved GREENGUARD Certification are scientifically proven to meet some of the world’s most rigorous, third-party chemical emissions standards. This helps to reduce indoor air pollution and the risk of chemical exposure, while aiding in the creation of healthier indoor environments.

The label combines the most relevant emission specifications and requirements in one certification. The Indoor Air Comfort Gold label shows compliance with specifications on VOC emissions set out globally. We are proud to be first-in-class to receive this certification.

Rubio Monocoat Oil Plus 2C, when applied to a wooden surface, shows Food Contact Compliance. Additionally, Universal Maintenance Oil, when applied over Oil Plus 2C, is also Food Contact Compliant. Testing was performed by the independent testing institute Eurofins, according to the underlying specification of European Framework Regulation 1935/2004 for Food Contact Materials.

This European guideline regulates the migration of certain hazardous elements like barium, cadmium and mercury etc. in different types of toys. The certification reflects that wood treated with Oil Plus 2C, Universal Maintenance Oil, or Hybrid Wood Protector is safe for children.

An independent laboratory (Ecca) has subjected our products to gaschromatography tests to help determine the VOC level in a product.

​French legislation which measures the number of VOCs in products and which awards a grade from A+ (lowest emission) to C (highest emission).

Official, independent, German institute which tests the emissions released by industrial products used indoors. This label is mandatory for each product used in public spaces like doctor's practices, hospitals, offices and shops.

The aim of this classification is to enhance the development and use of low-emitting building materials. The classification presents emission requirements for the materials used in ordinary work spaces and residences with respect to good indoor air quality. M1 stands for low emissions.

The FR Oil System, our flame-retardant oil system, has been tested in accordance with the following standards: EN 13501-1, EN ISO 11925-2 and EN ISO 9239-1. Achieving a Bfl s1 rating is a first. The B-certificate is the highest classification ever achieved by an oil system. The s1 refers to the extent that smoke development is limited. This is something we consistently strived to achieve during the development phase.
