More on Improving Your Kitchen's Air Quality

Your kitchen is a vital part of your home, and a part of your life. The practices you put into play can affect how your life transforms in other areas, too. At Eli Custom Cabinetry we are not just concerned about quality and craftsmanship, but also about the safety of the materials we use. In an attempt to provide our clients with healthier choices, all the finishes we use are low or cero VOC. As mentioned before, VOCs or volatile organic compounds are emitted as gases from certain solids or liquids such as paints, lacquers and glues. They are also found in many of the household cleaners we commonly use (more to follow on this topic.) VOCs include a variety of chemicals, some of which may have short- and long-term adverse health effects. As with other pollutants, the extent and nature of the health effect will depend on many factors including level of exposure and length of time exposed.

At our shop we focus on decreasing the amount of off-gassing chemicals we use in order to improve the air quality in your home.
