Topic: VOC Content / Emissions (Linked to BREEAM Section Hea02)

We do not hold VOC testing certificates for our Promat board products.

This is because they have a mineral composition, and in the terminology of the BREEAM Technical Manual are 'Inherently non-VOC emitting'. Furthermore, we can confirm that no volatile organic chemicals are used as additives during their manufacture.

For these reasons, Promat board products are outside the scope of the VOC assessment required for BREEAM, section Hea02 (Indoor Air Quality) and are deemed compliant.

Extract from the technical manual for information included below:-

Inherently non VOC emitting products do not need to be assessed and can be deemed fully compliant with the criteria. examples of non-VOC emitting products include:-

• Brick
• Natural Stone
• Concrete
• Ceramic Tile
• Glass
• Metal Surfaces etc...

This is unless organic-based coatings, binders, or sealants are used in their productions or finishes.
