Inclass, primer fabricante español de mobiliario en recibirel sello Greenguard Gold / Inclass, the first Spanish furniture manufacturer to achieve the Greenguard Gold Certification

15.09.2021 11:53

La marca Inclass ha logrado un hito para el sector del mobiliario español al convertirse en el primer fabricante en lograr la certificación Greenguard Gold, una de las certificaciones más rigurosas del mundo que acredita las bajas emisiones químicas de la mayoría de sus productos. Fruto de un exhaustivo proceso de análisis de todos los materiales, se ha concedido este sello de sostenibilidad a un total de 226 productos de ‘Seating’ de su catálogo.

La certificación lograda por Inclass, es la UL 2818 - GREENGUARD Programa de Certificación de Emisiones Químicas para Materiales de Construcción, Acabados y Mobiliario, emitida por Underwriters Laboratories. Éste es uno de los sellos con mayor reconocimiento internacional para certificar que un producto cumple con los estándares de bajas emisiones en Reino Unido, Estados Unidos, Canadá y Australia. El Programa de Certificación UL estudia los componentes orgánicos volátiles (COVs) que se derivan de la presencia del mobiliario en un entorno concreto.

Así, los productos que logran la certificación Greenguard han demostrado científicamente que cumplen con los estándares independientes más rigurosos sobre la emisión de químicos al aire y, por tanto, contribuyen a generar ambientes de interior más saludables. Según explica el director general de la empresa, Diego Vicedo: «Esta nueva certificación es el resultado del constante trabajo e inversión que Inclass lleva realizando desde hace años para ofrecer productos de calidad, más seguros, saludables y respetuosos con el medio ambiente.

Variables que son imprescindibles para competir en los exigentes mercados internacionales donde estamos presentes. Dentro de esta política realizamos, además, otras acciones. Diseñamos productos duraderos desde un punto de vista funcional y estético. Fabricamos localmente cumpliendo con los estándares internacionales de gestión medioambiental ISO 14001 y de calidad ISO 9001 que garantizan la calidad de nuestros productos así como la clasificación y minimización de los residuos generados en la fabricación. Analizamos nuestros productos en laboratorios independientes bajo estrictas normas internacionales que aseguran su calidad, durabilidad y seguridad».

The brand Inclass has achieved a milestone for the Spanish furniture sector by becoming the first manufacturer to achieve the Greenguard Gold Certification, one of the most rigorous certifications in the world that accredits the low chemical emissions of most of its products.

As a result of an exhaustive process of analysis of all materials, this sustainability seal has been awarded to a total of 226 ‘Seating’ products in its catalog.

The certification achieved by Inclass is the UL 2818 - GREENGUARD Certification Program for Chemical Emissions for Building Materials, Finishes and Furnishings, issued by Underwriters Laboratories. This is one of the most internationally recognized standards to certify that a product meets the low emission requirements in the United Kingdom, United States, Canada and Australia.

The UL Certification Program studies volatile organic components (VOCs) that are derived from the presence of furniture in a specific environment. Thus, products that achieve Greenguard Certification have been scientifically proven to comply with the most rigorous independent standards on the emission of chemicals into the air and, therefore, contribute to creating healthier indoor environments.

According to the CEO of the company, Diego Vicedo: “This new certification is the result of the constant work and investment that Inclass has been carrying out for years to offer quality, safe, healthy and environmentally friendly products. Variables that are essential to compete in the demanding international markets where we are present. Within this policy we also carry out other actions. We design long-lasting products from a functional and aesthetic point of view. We manufacture locally complying with the international standards of environmental management ISO 14001 and quality ISO 9001 that guarantee the quality of our products as well as the classification and minimization of waste generated in manufacturing. We analyze our products in independent laboratories under strict international standards that ensure their quality, durability and safety”.
