The problem

Construction and renovation (both professional and done at home) are one of areas with the most chemical products used and chemicals emitted from articles – from paints, varnishes and glues to piping and insulation materials. Many of these products, especially if used indoors, continue to impact human health, as various chemicals keep slowly evaporating from them.

Therefore, it is important to know what to look for when buying products for various parts of construction and renovation. To minimise impacts on health while not sacrificing in terms of quality or technical performance, it is important to look:

• labels,
• safety data sheets,
• chemical composition.
