Listed below is a summary of those product certificates with relative information.

E1 BOARD stands for Low Formaldehyde Emission and is known as “E1”, an internationally recognised standard of
safety for composite wood board.This certification characterises an engineered wood product that is unobjectionable for almost all intents and purposes and may be used for interior finishing and furniture.E1 boards have formaldehyde levels so low as to be undetectable.
GOOD WOOD The manufacturer’s environmental policy confirms that composite wood materials are sourced from
well-managed, sustainable forests and that they hold internationally recognised forestry stewardship certification.Because forestry stewardship means following the highest social and environmental criteria, it often requires managers to adapt their management and operations. This is how forestry stewardship has a direct and permanent positive impact on the world’s forests and the people living from, in and around the forest. Forestry stewardship cares for material through the production process - from the forest to the consumer, including successive stages of processing, transformation and manufacturing
world’s most rigorous third-party chemical emissions standards, helping to reduce indoor air pollution
and the risk of chemical exposure.
AFRDI Certification is a set of standards covering strength, durability, stability and safety (and ergonomics

of the products, submitting them for regular auditing to ensure they meet the highest standards for
commercial use.
