Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are organic chemicals that have high vapor pressure, have higher volatility molecules and become gas at room temperature. Bad air quality has implications on productivity and may be harmful to health. Volatile organic compounds may be the least known. We measure total volatile organic compounds (TVOC).
Tracking VOCs is important for nasal and odor sensitive individuals in tracking and removing scents, smells and odors for environmental comfort.
Concentrations of many VOCs are consistently higher indoors (up to ten times higher) than outdoors. VOCs and off-gassing is emitted by a wide array oFormaldehyde or HCHO is a VOC that is causally associated with nasopharyngeal cancer (NPC) and leukemia. Formaldehyde is surprisingly found in many products. VOC off-gassing may cause eye irritation and nasal / airway sensitivity or burning. f products numbering in the thousands.
Organic chemicals are widely used as ingredients in everyday household and commercial products. VOCs may come from spray, aerosols, cleaners, disinfectants, pesticides, air fresheners, glue, electronic devices, cosmetics, degreasers and hobby products. New construction and renovation may cause significant health concerns due to construction materials, new furniture, carpet or plywood. Paints, varnishes and wax may all contain organic solvents.
These organic compounds can be emitted by both natural sources and man-made (anthropogenic) sources such as industrial pollution and vehicle exhaust.
Formaldehyde or HCHO is a VOC that is causally associated with nasopharyngeal cancer (NPC) and leukemia. Formaldehyde is surprisingly found in many products. VOC off-gassing may cause eye irritation and nasal / airway sensitivity or burning.
We focus on identifying, removing and mitigating the source of the VOC to produce a healthy and safe working and living environment.
