Amtico International has products certified for low emissions through the FloorScore program.  The FloorScore program, developed by the Resilient Floor Covering Institute (RFCI) in conjunction with Scientific Certification Systems (SCS), tests and certifies flooring products for compliance with indoor air quality (IAQ) emission requirements adopted in California. 

FloorScore is a voluntary program that complies with the IAQ performance requirements for low emitting building materials as independently established by SCS-EC-10-2004, which includes compliance with the California Section 01350 requirements for listed VOCs in schools and state office buildings.

Continual studies show that the best way of controlling the indoor air quality of a built environment is source selection - the specification of low-VOC emitting products.  Taking away the source of VOC's greatly increases the quality of indoor air.  As we spend 90% of our time indoors, this is a very important ideology to adopt.
