Hello everyone,
If possible, I need some help with the following:
According to the reference guide for projects outside the US, the products have to be tested to either CDPH or AgBB.
Unfortunately, here in Portugal, where the project is located, there are not products with any of these certifications or similar. There is only information about the VOC content.
Is it possible to still meet the credit without the General Emissions Evaluation? If not, how can it be managed to meet the credit, once there is not this type of information in the products sell in Portugal.
Best regards.

Sorry to say, but there is no way to achieve these points without the General Emissions Evaluation. If your local providers do not supply products with such information then you might approach the global suppliers (who should be active in Portugal as well). They will need to supply such information for their markets in Scandinavia and in Germany, so they should know.

Hello everyone,
Would you please list third parties in China or Middle east to do the General Emissions Evaluation for some construction chemicals products.
Best regards

Hello Ahmed,
There are many products listed on www.ul.com/spot database that are available in China and Middle East. You need to filter for GREENGUARD Gold certified products because these meet the General Emissions Evaluation criteria. Then you can also filter by the region they are sold in. Not all product listings have populated the regions since this is a new feature, but it could be a good place to start.
If you can't find the products you need, we also have a test lab in Guangzhou that can perform the General Emissions Evaluation locally.
