The Safest, Most Environmentally Responsible Choice
ECF is the safest and most environmentally responsible choice for flooring underlayment. ECF is non-toxic and family- and pet-friendly and has ultra-low VOCs. Made from a proprietary process that merges Forest Stewardship Council (FSC)-certified cork with cross-linked polyethylene foam, ECF uses no proposition 65 chemicals and surpasses California’s Section 01350, the most stringent Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) emissions standards in North America. ECF is infused with antimicrobial protection to prevent microbial growth and promote a lifetime of freshness.

Why it Matters
Depending on your lifestyle, it may surprise you to learn that most people spend 90% of their time indoors. When you think about that amount of time and exposure, it really impacts the choices you make about the products in your home. That’s why for many people, the most important features of Eco Cork Foam are the things you don’t see, and the things that aren’t part of the product.
Given all the time we spend indoors, it may also surprise you to learn that indoor air is often more polluted than outdoor air. If you’re looking for ways to improve air quality, flooring is an easy place to start. Look for flooring and underlayment, like Eco Cork Foam, that has been tested and shown to have low or no VOCs.
Eco Cork Foam is made in the USA and, as such, has passed the high standards set by the US EPA when it comes to indoor air quality and environmental safety. Eco Cork Foam also passes California’s rigorous standards for proposition 65 chemicals. When you use Eco Cork Foam Underlayment, you can breathe a lot easier at home.
