Does anyone having project that uses raised floor with gypsum panel as flooring system ? Can I suggest that gypsum is exempted from FloorScore certificate as they are primarily mineral-based like ceramic tiles and concrete and its production process undergoes high temperature treatment ?

William,
There are many gypsum products around that pass the requirements of meeting the low-emitting standard CA 01350. You can find some of them on sites like GREEENGUARD and SCS or manufacturers will actually have test reports that show they comply.

Hi William,
Is the gypsum your finish flooring system? If so, I've never heard of that before. Is there something over the gypsum or is it part of the mechanical system somehow? Just wanted to get some clarity. It's only finish flooring systems that would be included.
