To furnish implies the choice of furniture according to their use as well as the decision of where to place them in the most appropriate way. Simple gestures that become more important if you have to furnish the workspace.
Many, in fact, are the rules to be followed in office activities, about occupational safety and environmental protection.
First of all, all the office furniture should be chosen according to UNI regulation (Italian Standards) EN regulation (European standards) ISO regualation (International Standards). The regulation specifies the technical details of office furniture, but we must not forget that the furniture purchased must also be marked by the CE mark, which certifies compliance with the essential requirements of European directives on safety, public health, consumer protection. We suggest that you have all the certifications once you ask for an offer.
Very important too, is to be sure that, the office furniture you are going to buy, has an additional certification, attesting the low release of formaldehyde. The CQA mark - Formaldehyde E1, identifies all those productions with low emission of formaldehyde, a substance classified as carcinogenic by the International Agency for Research on Cancer.
Formaldehyde is a colorless volatile gas and is soluble in water; it is widely used in the production of resins, which are used to produce furniture panels. The causes of the release of gases are often due to chemical phenomena, such as hydrolysis.
Changes in temperature, humidity and ventilation may influence the levels of volatile substances emitted by furniture. For example, high levels of temperature and humidity are able to increase the emission of these substances. It is still possible to get the materials with lower formaldehyde emissions: it is enough to carry out a pre-treatment of wood-derived materials, and a control of the amount of adhesive used during their production. In recent years, has become crucial, for the producers of raw materials and finished products, to combine the aesthetic level of furniture finish and interior furnishings, with the attention to the health of the final user.
All office furniture with Styloffice mark are characterized by low levels of formaldehyde. The company pays great attention to safety checks of office furniture: 360 ° attention beginning with raw materials and ending with the final product.
