HomeNewsSCS accredits Eurofins Air Toxins for emissions testing

Emeryville, Calif.—SCS Global Services (SCS) has accredited Eurofins Air Toxics an ISO 17025 credentialed environmental chamber emissions testing facility in Folsom, Cal if., to conduct volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions testing for the SCS Indoor Advantage, SCS Indoor Advantage Gold and FloorScore certification programs.

Additionally, SCS will accept Eurofins Air Toxics’ test results to confirm conformance with industry-recognized sustainability and environmental claims standards, such as the popular California standard for indoor VOC emissions (CDPH SM V1.1, CA 01350), and the US commercial furniture industry sustainable manufacturing standard (ANSI/BIFMA e3).

Accurate, reproducible data are critical to indoor air quality certification. Accreditation by SCS verifies that Eurofins Air Toxics meets stringent quality management system guidelines. Manufacturers of flooring, furniture and building materials can use Eurofins Air Toxics to build data sets that can be leveraged towards SCS certification. Certified products are routinely specified for LEED-rated buildings, government institutions, healthcare facilities, and schools that meet green building guidelines.

“Achieving SCS Global Services’ accreditation not only affirms our stellar quality of testing standards but also furthers our drive to assist manufacturers in delivering safer, greener products to the marketplace,” said Stephany Mason, vice president of product testing at Eurofins Air Toxics. “Alignment of our portfolio of VOC emissions testing services and SCS’ certification programs creates a valuable platform for manufacturers to market the indoor air quality attributes of their products.”

“Our indoor air quality certifications allow certified clients to prove that their products contribute to creating a safer, healthier indoor environment for their customers,” said Stowe Beam, managing director of SCS environmental certification services division. “This partnership will allow us to better serve manufacturers globally with faster turnaround time and increased choices for high quality testing solutions.”
