Unexpected health benefits from green flooring
Sustainable or green flooring improves indoor air quality by reducing VOCs (volatile organic compounds) in the air.
Why it matters
VOCs can cause several short and long-term health effects, including:
- Eye, nose and throat irritation
- Headaches, loss of coordination and nausea
- Damage to liver, kidney and central nervous system
SelecTech commercial flooring products reduce VOCs, improving air quality. That’s in addition to providing workers with a better ergonomic surface. Both key factors in reducing sick days and workers compensation claims. All the while reducing your operation’s carbon footprint.
