What is CARB?
The California Air Resources Board (CARB) is a department of the California Environmental Protection Agency. On April 26, 2007, CARB approved an airborne toxic control measure (ATCM) to reduce formaldehyde emissions from composite wood products including hardwood plywood, particleboard, medium density fiberboard, thin medium density fiberboard and also cabinets, furniture and other finished products made with composite wood products. The first set of formaldehyde emissions limits went into effect January 1, 2009. PureBond® formaldehyde-free hardwood plywood meets the toughest Phase 2 emission limits set by CARB. For more information on the ATCM visit CARB at www.arb.ca.gov/toxics/compwood/compwood.htm.
