More information:

The product is GreenTag GreenRate Level C Certified under Scheme C8.

The scope of certification includes R100 Commercial Carpet Adhesive, R200 Multipurpose Vinyl Adhesive, GS444 Pressure Sensitive Adhesive, R656 Pressure Sensitive Adhesive.

Issues of Concern/Red Lights (if needed) The products have successfully passed the relevant GreenTag Standard's Cautionary Assessment Process and issues of concern comments exist regarding the toxicity of the products.

R100 Commercial Carpet Adhesive and R200 Multipurpose Vinyl Adhesive contains low amount of Isoparaffin which may be fatal if swallowed and enters airways (H304 statement). RLA polymers provided low VOC emission test report to prove that there is extremely low chance for end users to be exposed to risk via inhalation. Once the glue is used for flooring adhesion, there is also rare opportunity for isoparaffin to be eaten by end users. The risk is more likely to happen during the manufacturing stage. RLA polymer provided sufficient evidence for their Occupational Health and Safety System, but the manufacturer of mixture containing Isoparaffin didn't provide such evidence. Hence, an issue of concern is raised.
