HH-005: Product Air Testing in Oceania
Products manufactured and having a final point of assembly only in the Oceania region, defined as Australia, New Zealand, Melanesia, Micronesia, and Polynesia, may demonstrate compliance with the LBC I-10 Healthy Interior Performance Imperative by testing to EN 16516, ISO 16000-9, or ASTM D5116. Products must demonstrate they are low emitting by providing a testing report from an approved certified lab that demonstrates the emission factor is equal to or less than:
- tVOCs= 450 μg/m³
- Formaldehyde =60 μg/m³
In Oceania, the VOC emissions laboratory certificate of compliance or associated summary report must either have an expiration date after, or, provided the formulation has not changed, a testing date within the five years prior to the date of specification.
Projects may use products tested and certified under a program that conforms to the standards listed above such as:
- Emicode
- Blue Angel
