It is a very important fact that traditional plywood products use Urea Formaldehyde glue and Phenol glue. As do too many Bamboo flooring manufacturers. It is hazardous to use products containing formaldehyde and poisonous phenyl in confined spaces like your dining room. In fact, these components directly affect the central nervous system.
We are proud to say that we do not indulge in this contradiction of selling an environmentally friendly product such as Panda Bamboo Flooring while using poisonous products in the manufacturing process.
That is why our Panda Bamboo Floor uses special, refined glue with high adhesion strength that meets U.S. testing standards for 3-Ply laminated flooring ANSI-3 Cycle-Test for flooring, and formaldehyde emissions meet the E1 standard, the European standard, that is far stricter than the U.S. Standard.
In fact, our outsourced manufacturing plant in China complies with the new regulations of building materials. Our Panda Bamboo Floors formaldehyde emission meets 1.5 mg/L, which is equal to European E1 Standard. There is just 0.4 mg/L in our Bamboo Floors.
