At The Mission Collection, creating beautiful and healthy spaces is our mission. That’s why we’re proud that many of our hard surface flooring and adhesive products hold FloorScore® certification!
Did you know indoor air pollution can be 2-5 times higher than what you encounter outdoors? Poor ventilation, infrequent cleaning, and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) emitted from building materials all contribute to this alarming statistic. Since most people spend a staggering 90% of their time indoors, breathing unhealthy air can have serious health consequences.
FloorScore® Certification: A Breath of Fresh Air
While LEED certification is well-known for environmentally friendly construction, FloorScore® is a lesser-known but rapidly growing standard. Developed by the Resilient Floor Covering Institute (RFCI), FloorScore® rigorously tests and verifies hard surface flooring and adhesives for VOC emissions. By focusing on these emissions, FloorScore® directly addresses a major risk factor for poor indoor air quality.
Fewer VOCs, Healthier Homes
FloorScore® certification ensures that the flooring and adhesive products you choose contribute to healthier homes and workplaces by minimizing VOC emissions. This translates to improved air quality and a reduced risk of health problems.
