September 30, 2005—The GREENGUARD Environmental Institute (GEI) has awarded GREENGUARD Indoor Air Quality Certification for Children & Schools to the ZUMA and ZUMAfrd lines of classroom furniture by Virco, GREENGUARD says.
The ZUMA and ZUMAfrd student desks and seating were the first products subjected to GREENGUARD Certification Program’s recently released strict test protocols for low emitting indoor products used in daycare and K-12 school facilities. Educators, parents, specifiers can trust GREENGUARD Certified materials and furnishings, like Virco’s ZUMA furniture, not to pollute classroom air with high levels of harmful contaminants.
Low emitting products bearing the GREENGUARD Indoor Air Quality Certified label may help significantly reduce indoor air pollution. All GREENGUARD Certified Products are readily available and can be used without added cost or effort. For a database of tested and certified low emitting products, visit the Web site.
