CARB Updates Labeling Rules for Composite Wood Products
The revised advisory contains several important changes, including:
• Information to be included on the label for panel manufacturers and fabricators of finished goods
• The use of language to reflect the latest implementation of the law
The 2016 revision of minimum information requirements for panel manufacturers, fabricators of finished goods and importers, distributors and retailers of panels and finished goods, updates a previous advisory from July 2009.
CARB approved the Airborne Toxic Control Measure (ATCM) in April 2007 to reduce formaldehyde emissions from composite wood panels. The standards were implemented in two phases – Phase 1 in January 2009 and Phase 2 in 2010-2012. ATCM covers hardwood plywood-veneer core (HWPW-VC), hardwood plywood-composite core (HWPW-CC), particleboards (PBs) and medium-density fiberboards (MDFs).
