Nydree Offers Transparency and Quality in Wake of Flooring Safety Fears
FOREST, Va. – March 5 – A recent 60 Minutes report called out the dangers in using unregulated, Chinese-manufactured flooring and its failure to meet CARB 2 compliance because of its high formaldehyde levels. The lower-cost, high-volume manufacturer on the hot seat is now facing possible criminal charges.

The story highlights the importance of transparency and the need for a high commitment to regulatory standards and American-made products. Consumers, builders and the construction industry need not fear the safety of all hardwood flooring. There is a safe, high-quality answer.

Industry pioneer Nydree Flooring is one of the first wood manufacturers to have a Health Product Declaration. Nydree, which is the chosen provider of NFL's first LEED Gold Certified Levi's Stadium and other high-profile sustainable projects, ensures transparency of all of its products through independent lab testing. Its FloorScore Certification states it is a low-emitting product and is Indoor Air Quality Certified. All Nydree products use CARB 2 compliant hardwood plywood (HWPW) that is third-party certified by independent laboratories. Nydree fabricates all flooring using non-formaldehyde adhesives.

Nydree Flooring is committed to making the healthiest products possible and leads the wood flooring industry in doing so. All antimicrobial agents have been removed from Nydree products and in the next eight weeks, benzophenone will be removed from the finish of 100 percent of its products (Nydree is one of the only U.S. manufacturers to do so). Nydree uses the Google product procurement guidelines and Pharos guidelines as its standard to integrate eco principles into all products.
