Is the HDF used in the Marmoleum click product safe? The MSDS sheet says it contains 'free formaldehyde' of class E1. My understanding is that with an E1 rating, the product can still contain 0.1ppm formaldehyde. I've seen laminate floors with Greenguard Gold certification, which would have much lower formaldehyde concentrations.

Free formaldehyde is that formaldehyde that exists naturally in all things. It's in food, in your body, and everywhere. It can never be eliminated completely. Forbo does not add any urea formaldehyde, which is the toxic type of formaldehyde. Since Marmoleum Click hit the market about 10 years ago, we've been offering it to chemically sensitive customers with excellent results. However, there are always a few people who simply don't like the smell of linseed oil - but that dissipates within a few days. The best way to test a product is to order a sample and see how your body tolerates it. If you don't like it, we have several other flooring options such as cork, bamboo, hardwood, and carpet.
