Choosing a floor is a decision that affects not only the aesthetics of an interior but also comfort, health and everyday quality of use. That is why more and more people pay attention not only to appearance or technical parameters but also to certificates confirming safety, ecological production and low emission of volatile substances.
VinylTechLab products hold a number of confirmed certifications that set them apart in the market. Below we explain what they mean and why they are worth considering.
Why certifications are so important
Vinyl flooring certification is not a formality – it is confirmation that a product has undergone detailed testing.
Certifications cover testing in the following areas:
- emission of volatile organic compounds (VOC)
- content of harmful substances
- safety of use
- material quality
- environmental impact
In practice, this means that the floor not only looks impressive and is durable but also meets a high ecological standard, which matters for both health and everyday living comfort.
CE certification – safety in line with European standards
The CE mark confirms that the product meets all European Union requirements.
CE covers requirements relating to:
- safety of use
- health protection
- environmental protection
Floors bearing the CE logo are approved for sale throughout the EU and meet stringent quality and safety standards.
FloorScore – a guarantee of low VOC emissions
FloorScore is one of the most important indoor air quality certificates.
It confirms that the floor:
- has very low volatile organic compound (VOC) emissions
- is safe for use in homes, offices, nurseries and schools
- meets the requirements of building certification programmes
Thanks to FloorScore, you can be sure that the floor does not negatively affect indoor air quality.
GreenGuard – the healthy interior certificate
GreenGuard, widely used in the construction and furniture industries, is one of the most valued ecological certificates in the world.
GreenGuard confirms:
- very low chemical substance emissions
- user safety
- compliance with strict air quality standards, especially in enclosed spaces
A+ – the highest emission class in France
The French A+ emission label is proof that the floor has the lowest possible emission of formaldehyde and other volatile substances in indoor air. A+ is the highest class – signifying a product that is safe and environmentally friendly, compliant with French healthy interior standards.
REACH – control over material composition
REACH is a European regulation that provides a rigorous framework for chemical substance management.
REACH covers:
- registration of chemical substances
- evaluation of chemical substances
- restrictions on chemical substances
The certificate confirms that VTL floors meet REACH requirements and do not contain dangerous or banned substances. All components are rigorously controlled, demonstrating responsible and safe production.
Sustainability in VinylTechLab's DNA
Certifications are not everything. VTL products have been designed in line with the concept of sustainable development.
In practice this means:
- production meets stringent CO₂ emission standards
- the EpuShield protective coating increases panel durability, reducing the need for replacements and thus waste generation
- panels can be installed on underfloor heating, supporting more efficient energy management
- all collections are durable and resistant, minimising their negative environmental impact over the product life cycle
This is a modern approach to production that combines aesthetics, safety and ecology.
Summary
By choosing VinylTechLab floors, you receive a product that not only looks exceptionally elegant but, above all, meets the highest standards of safety, quality and ecology.
If you care about a floor that combines modern design with responsible production and real value for users, the solutions offered by VinylTechLab are a choice that gives complete confidence – today and for years to come.
