When assigning the label, each volatile substance emitted by a product is analysed and quantified separately. Each of them is compared against all existing national and international recommendations, regulations and standards identified by “Air Label Score”.
The product is given a score between A+ and C, which represents its emission level.

The analyses are carried out in the context of real product use.
The final score assigned to a product is that of the emitted substance with the worst rating. The score is also influenced by the total amount of volatile substances detected. A product for which each substance has been given a good rating may nevertheless be assigned a lower score if the total amount of substances represent high emissions.
The ratings are updated, if possible in advance, based on regulatory developments.
Consult the information page of each product for recommendations on use and test methodology data.

The label that insures indoor air quality
“Air Label Score” guarantees consumers the best available information on the emissions of products into indoor air. Products tested are given a score between A+ (very low emissions) and C (high emissions), which represents their emission level.
