EQ Credit 2: Low-emitting materials Furniture evaluation.

If pursuing the budget calculation method, how do you capture the layer surface area for mechanical products such as duct sealants, pipe sealants, firestop, etc.

Is a EU Ecolabel Certificate an USGBC approved program? Kind regards

Is all furniture required to be certified or tested? It used to be only permanently installed items, like workstations, private office furniture, task chairs.

Hi, We have a CI project in Mexico, we are specifying a National paints trade and the certification for VOC is the standard ASTM D 3960, which is not in the list of third party certifications acc

If the manufacturer provides documentation indicating the product has zero VOCs, does additional documentation showing compliance w/ CDPH Standard Method V1.1-2010 still need to be provided?

The USGBC has posted, and will continue updating, a "Low-Emitting Materials Third-Party Certifications table" at this link: http://www.usgbc.org/resources/low-emitting-materials-third-party-cert

Hi, I am completing the VOC calculator, but if I put a product with the maximum allowed value it does not comply. For example if they ask for 70 and my product has 70 for v4 is not fulfilling?

Would resinous flooring be evaluated under the Flooring or Paints & Coatings category?

The new bundling of low emitting categories into one credit is resulting in disincentivizing our v4 projects from pursuing low emitting credits they always used to before.
