The Carpet and Rug Institute (CRI) Environmental Programs
All J+J Flooring adhesives and seam sealers, including all GSA approved products, comply with the Carpet and Rug Institute’s Green Label Plus Testing Program for Indoor Air Quality. Using scientifically established standards, Green Label Plus ensures that customers are purchasing from among the lowest emitting carpet, adhesive and cushion products on the market.
Carpet products are tested annually for emission levels for seven chemicals as required by Section 01350, plus six additional chemicals. Annual and quarterly testing is based on 24-hour chamber testing for targeted chemicals and the total level of volatile organic compounds (TVOC). For more information about the Green Label Plus Testing Program or a list of VOC's tested, please contact CRI Technical Department at 706-428-2101 or www.carpet-rug.org.
