LIVING WELL™
Well-being starts inside
A healthy lifestyle is more important than ever. The role your indoor environment plays in achieving the lifestyle you want for your family is often invisible – but always significant.
Resilient flooring is designed to benefit the natural environment and the environment inside your home. It helps you maintain a high level of indoor air quality with third-party certified products.
Well-Being
LIVE WITH CONFIDENCE
Your family’s well-being is your first priority. We’ve taken that to heart as we design resilient flooring – so your home can look good while your family feels good.
INDOOR AIR QUALITY:
Beautifully responsible resilient floors meet applicable third-party certification standards for contributing to good indoor air quality and/or being free from hazardous substances such as formaldehyde.
REDUCED CHEMICALS:
Resilient flooring is made with advanced wear layers that make it easy to clean and maintain without the need for harsh chemicals.
IMPROVED ACCESSIBILITY:
Some types of resilient flooring can be installed without raised, disruptive transitions between rooms. This can improve access for those with limited mobility.
ACOUSTIC COMFORT:
Some types of resilient flooring products help lower the noise of foot traffic and reduce how much sound travels between floors.
FloorScore® and ASSURE CERTIFIED™:
Standards you can trust
The average American spends about 90% of the day inside, where you want the air to be fresh and pure. Poor indoor air quality can be a factor in headaches, dizziness, breathing problems, and other effects.
Chemicals called volatile organic compounds, or VOCs, are released from many home goods and furnishings. VOCs, dust, and allergens make your indoor air less pure for your family.
Thankfully, you can choose products that are certified to promote cleaner indoor air quality due to reduced VOC content. The FloorScore® and ASSURE CERTIFIED™ labels make it easy to know whether the floor you choose contributes to good indoor air quality.
When your home has high-quality indoor air, you can breathe easy knowing you’ve made a great flooring choice for you family.
WHAT IS A HEALTH PRODUCT DECLARATION?
Many resilient flooring manufacturers choose to provide a Health Product Declaration (HPD) for specific products. An HPD discloses the materials and ingredients that are in a product, similar to the FDA’s nutrition label on food packages.
Available for many resilient flooring products, an HPD provides you, your architect, and designer with a transparent view of what’s in the product you choose for your home. This is one way that we, as manufacturers, can help support you in your journey to make good decisions for your family’s well-being.
