What is GREENGUARD Certification?

GREENGUARD Certification is a globally recognized standard developed by UL Environment to ensure that products used indoors meet strict chemical emissions limits, contributing to healthier indoor air quality.

It verifies that a product is low in volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and safe for indoor use in homes, offices, schools, and healthcare facilities.

Products that earn the GREENGUARD Certification are scientifically tested and proven to emit low levels of pollutants, ensuring a cleaner and safer environment.

At xLegal, we assist manufacturers, exporters, and suppliers in obtaining GREENGUARD Certification in India with complete documentation, testing, and approval guidance — helping your products meet global environmental and health standards.
