All of our standard products are
available with Low Formaldehyde emissions, to meet the F
(F-Three Star) and F
(F-Four Star) Japanese Industrial Standard (JIS).
JIS applies stringent criteria to resin inputs and formaldehyde
emissions resulting in a tangible standard for consumer security.
The F-Three Star standard is a maximum of 0.5 milligrams per
litre (mg/l) of formaldehyde emission and the lower F-Four Star
standard is maximum of 0.3 mg/l formaldehyde emission. These
levels meet both CARB Phase 1 and Phase 2 emissions. We also
meet other Emission standards, simply request your preference
when you place your order
This symbol appears on every JIS
pack and illustrates our compliance with the JIS A 5905 standard.
The RS designates the panel as "Base Board Polished", or sanded
panel. The 30 relates to the minimum bending strength (Modulus
of Rupture) of the panel, and is a conservative minimum for
the full range of panels we make. The U is the classification
according to the adhesive or resin used, and signifies that
Urea based resin is the main component.
NAF - No Added Formaldehyde
Should you want to avoid formaldehyde
emissions altogether, talk to your sales representative about

As with all our products, you can
also request 100% FSC(Forestry
Standards Certification) wood be used to make your low formaldehyde
