EMICODE®

The EMICODE® clas­si­fic­a­tion sys­tem makes it pos­sible to com­pare and eval­u­ate build­ing products based on their emis­sion beha­vi­or, while at the same time provid­ing an incent­ive to fur­ther improve these products.

Mean­while, the trade­mark-pro­tec­ted sys­tem has become the lead­ing inter­na­tion­al qual­ity stand­ard for a wide range of product cat­egor­ies. Since the EMICODE®  was intro­duced in 1997, more than 20,000 products from all over the world have been awar­ded the EMICODE®  label.

The label serves as a guide for con­sumers, crafts­men and archi­tects and helps them identi­fy which products offer a high level of pro­tec­tion from indoor air pol­lu­tion, thereby pro­mot­ing health and envir­on­ment­al com­pat­ib­il­ity.

Wheth­er you lay car­pet­ing, install tiles, refin­ish your par­quet floor, seal your shower tub, or carry out oth­er repair, renov­a­tion or fin­ish­ing work: Build­ing products bear­ing the EMICODE® seal ensure that you are always on the safe side when it comes to healthy liv­ing.

The label offers con­sumers, crafts­men and archi­tects guid­ance to decide which mater­i­als offer max­im­um safety from indoor air pol­lu­tion, guar­an­tee optim­um health pro­tec­tion and high envir­on­ment­al com­pat­ib­il­ity. 

Wheth­er you install car­pet­ing, glue tiles, seal your par­quet, caulk your shower tub or carry out oth­er repair, renov­a­tion or exten­sion work: Build­ing products with the EMICODE® label ensure that you are always on the safe side as far as healthy liv­ing is con­cerned!

The label

In order to be awar­ded the EMICODE® label or seal, man­u­fac­tur­ers need to sub­mit their products to extens­ive test­ing at renowned insti­tutes. Based on sci­en­tific­ally determ­in­ated test res­ults, EMICODE® cat­egor­izes floor­ing install­a­tion mater­i­als, adhes­ives and con­struc­tion products into three emis­sion classes.
