Magripol Premium: First A+ certified insulation for VOC emissions

Magripol Premium certified A+

Magripol Premium is the first insulation certified A+ by the CSTB. This natural insulation plant-based, flax-based, has obtained the highest possible classification. That is to say thatit emits no or very few volatile pollutants within homes. Test Report No. SB-12-073 dated April 25, 2012 – Regulatory Labeling of VOC Emissions.   What are volatile pollutants? Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) are compounds of carbon and hydrogen that deteriorate the quality of the air we breathe. The air in homes is particularly affected since many products are a source of pollution in our interiors: Floor coverings, household products, insulation... This pollution causes significant problems for our planet and global warming, but also directly for humans. Indeed, This indoor air pollution can be dangerous for our health since it triggers allergies, irritation of the respiratory tract, headaches and poisoning.   How to combat indoor air pollution? Simple actions can help us limit the risks of these VOCs to our health. Ventilating and airing your home, especially in winter, is essential. However, while these actions help dilute pollutants, they are not completely eliminated. To minimize the spread of pollutants indoors, the CSTB has implemented a product rating system that clearly indicates to consumers their level of volatile pollutant emissions into indoor air. Products are rated from A+ to CThe A+ rating indicates that the product emits no or very few volatile pollutants. On the contrary, the C rating indicates that the product emits a lot of pollutants and can therefore be dangerous to health.    To learn more, visit the website of theValnat Nature Insulation.
