I've received a Greenguard Gold certificate for conversion varnish for casework that says it is tested to CDPHv1.2-2017 for first floor of home environment (UL 2818-2013). Our project is an office environment. The submitter is claiming that the first floor of home environment test is more stringent than the open office test. However, reading the actual CDPH Standard Methodv1.2-2017, I only see classroom and open office as tested scenarios. Does anyone know if this home test scenario is acceptable as VOC emissions compliance?
