Are you planning to replace your flooring? If so, then you should definitely pay attention to the kind of material you are going to install. Did you know that pollutant levels inside your home can be anywhere from twice to five times higher than those outside? A lot of these harmful pollutants could come from the carpet you have.
Regular carpets can bring with them countless VOCs or volatile organic compounds, including those that are suspected to cause cancer like benzene and formaldehyde. What’s worse is the fact that it can even take years before these harmful substances totally dissolve.
As if that is not enough, regular carpets can also easily trap toxic chemicals and allergens that are brought in from outside.
For those reasons, more and more homeowners are making conscious efforts to go for green carpet flooring options that can help lessen the pollution inside their homes and prevent any negative effects on their family’s health.
One of the best choices for eco-friendly flooring are the ones from Beaulieu’s Healthy Home. Here are some of the reasons you should roll out a Healthy Home carpet at home:
