When choosing latex paints, consumers will pay special attention to the environmental protection of latex paints. This is because low-quality latex paint volatilizes a large number of harmful substances, such as formaldehyde, benzene, etc. These harmful substances are free in the indoor air and will bring great harm to human health. It can cause allergies, nausea and vomiting, and damage to the nervous system and immune system.
As a century-old German wall paint brand, Albena has always adhered to the concept of "sustainable development" and attaches great importance to the environmental protection and safety of paint products. Albena wall paint has successively obtained the French indoor air A+ certification, the German Blue Angel certification, and the German Frei Von product environmental protection testing label. As non-professionals, we can identify the environmental quality of latex through these environmental labels on the latex paint cans. Today, let's follow Albena to get to know these authoritative environmental labels.
The French Indoor Air A+ certification assesses the amount of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) emitted in buildings and household items, as well as their impact on indoor air quality. This certification is divided into four levels, from highest to low, A+, A, B, and C. The highest level of A+ means that the VOC emission in the product is extremely low and has little to no effect on indoor air quality.
The Blue Angel Certification in Germany is one of Germany's oldest and most stringent environmental labels. Because the verification standard of the German Blue Angel is 07g kg, there are only a handful of paint products that can obtain the German Blue Angel certification every year, so the latex paint products with the German Blue Angel certification will enjoy a high environmental quality recognition in the market.
The German FREI VON product environmental protection test mark means that the raw materials of the coating do not contain organic solvents, plasticizers, preservatives and other harmful substances. According to research, phthalate plasticizers, which are widely used in latex paints, have no obvious impact on the health of **, but may cause many adverse effects on children, and even cause the problem of precocious puberty.
Just like "the store has a store sign, the wine has a wine label", the certification of the industry authority often means that the product is more secure, in the paint industry, an authoritative environmental certification, means that the environmental protection effect of latex paint is more guaranteed. Albena wall paint has passed a number of authoritative environmental protection certifications, which mark that Albena wall paint has reached the world's leading level in terms of environmental performance, and the pollution to the environment and the harm to the human body tend to be zero, so you can use it with confidence.
