Plywood has long been a popular material for furniture due to style, durability, and cost. However, many homeowners, and even designers, do not realize that not all plywood is the same. Standard plywood functional and cheap can also contain a harmful secret: it emits dangerous materials into your indoor air.
There is now a new health-friendly alternative that is making your building a safe, healthy, and sustainable home an option — E-0 Emission Plywood.
1. Standard Plywood Contains Hidden Issues
Most standard plywood is stuck together with formaldehyde resin that emits a toxic gas known as volatile organic compounds (VOCs) that often are the largest contributor to indoor air quality problems. These gases can remain toxic for years after you have moved into a home and can cause health concerns like eye irritation, headaches, respiratory problems, and allergies when inhaled.
Toxins in indoor air pollute our health and safety in confined spaces like our homes and offices where we spend up to 90% of our time. That can create air pollution that is invisible, yet very real.
This is one reason many modern home construction companies are looking for alternatives with low emissions like E-0 Emission Plywood to refresh their buildings of invisible toxins.
2. E-0 Emission Plywood Has an Important Difference
The “E” rating of plywood refers to the level of formaldehyde emission. The “E-0” is classified as a formaldehyde emission performance compliance rating is the lowest level of formaldehyde emissions.
E-0 Emission Plywood is less than 0.5 mg/L formaldehyde which makes this plywood one of the safest plywood options for anything inside homes. E-0 Plywood is made using environmentally friendly adhesives and resins that are free of adverse chemicals and will not pollute the air inside your house or workplace like conventional plywood.
From your wardrobe in the bedroom to your kitchen cabinets or desk in your office, you can feel reassured that you have a cleaner and healthier marketed and manufactured product. E-0 Plywood does not compromise on the strength or aesthetics of the product.
3. Strength, Durability, and Design Flexibility
