WOCA Denmark
Plant Based Low VOC Oils

What do we mean when we say that WOCA products are low in VOCs?

First let’s look into what a Volatile Organic Compound is. A VOC is a chemical that under ordinary room-temperature conditions will evaporate very easily into the surrounding air. Although the chemical is “organic” it is still harmful. Symptoms from VOC are slow to develop mainly because the chemical is inhaled over a long period of time. VOCs occur naturally in the environment but in very small amounts. It is a primary way of communication between plants. Using a WOCA product that is low in VOCs means that you can apply the oils to your floor and inside your house without the long-term effects of inhaling and risking your health. WOCA products are plant based and safe to use.

• WOCA products are the safest in their field.

WOCA Oils are low in Volatile Organic Compounds.

In 2007 new regulations were introduced in the European Union regarding VOC (Volatile Organic Compounds) levels in coating materials. All WOCA products fulfill these regulations. We feel that this is an important ecological step in the protection of our working and living environment.

WOCA finishing oils have the following features:

• Positive influence on the working area and living environment. Improvement of product characteristics and application methods. No effect on indoor air quality.
• WOCA products are certified by independent laboratories, the German Institute for Biological Building Materials, and are in accordance with DIN-Norm 53-160. WOCA WoodCare Denmark products meet or exceed the most stringent U.S. standards for volatile organic compounds.
