Among the various certifications it has, one of them is Greenguard and Greenguard Gold from UL Environment. These two certifications have been given to 2 Aica products, namely Aica HPL and CERARL and have just been renewed in 2024.

What is Greenguard and Greenguard Gold Certification?

For those of you who are not familiar with this certification, GreenGuard Certification is a certification given by UL (Underwriters Laboratories), an international organization that focuses on safety, environment, and sustainability. This certification ensures that products meet strict standards for low chemical emissions, making them safer for indoor use.

With its strict assessment standards, what is the purpose of Greenguard certification?

The issuance of Greenguard and Greenguard Gold certifications has the following purposes:

1. Reducing indoor air pollution : Products with GreenGuard Certification are designed to minimize emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and other chemicals that can pollute indoor air.
2. Improving the health and comfort of its users : This product helps create a healthier environment for its occupants, especially in closed spaces such as offices, homes, or schools.
3. Supporting environmentally friendly construction : This certification is often used as proof of compliance with green building standards, such as LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) and the like.

Therefore, it is important for products used indoors to have this international certification. Aica Indonesia consistently continues to renew its Greenguard and Greenguard Gold certifications in order to maximize these goals.

The products that have this certification usually include furniture products (chairs, tables, cabinets), paint and wall coverings/furniture coverings, floors (carpets, wood, vinyl), electronic products and other categories of building materials such as insulation materials, glues and adhesives.

Aica Indonesia itself has Greenguard and Greenguard Gold certification for Aica HPL standard products, Aica HPL Postform, Backsersheet and CERARL wall panels.

What is the Difference between Greenguard and Greenguard Gold?

- GreenGuard Certification: For products with low chemical emissions that meet basic safety limits.

- GreenGuard Gold Certification: Stricter standards, suitable for use in sensitive environments such as hospitals, schools, and children's homes.

Based on this explanation, of course you can conclude that choosing a product that has Greenguard and Greenguard Gold certification is the right decision to protect the environment and your beloved family from exposure to chemical emissions, and Aica Indonesia is here with Aica HPL and CERARL products that have been certified Greenguard and Greenguard Gold.
