Is your environment making you sick?
Your environment can cause allergies or aggravate chemical sensitivities. Or create a feeling of general malaise. The cause can lie in the building systems and materials: they may be benign or they can make you sick. When you build or remodel your home, office you can take advantage of the latest technologies and products to protect your health and that of your family and employees. Here are some of the building components that you can use to create a healthy environment.
Ventilation systems: Standard ventilation systems blow mould- or dust-laden air into your home. Healthy systems ventilate the building while filtering out harmful particles.
Insulation: Conventional insulation materials give off toxic chemicals. The art materials conserve energy without the toxic side effects.
Interior paint: Regular paint creates indoor pollution. Healthy paint products enliven your walls and ceilings and still allow you to breathe easily.
Carpet and padding: Conventional materials contain formaldehyde. But healthy carpeting and padding soften your floors and ensure that you are breathing clean air.
Interior furnishings: Often produce toxic gases. There are many products available that provide comfort and style, while creating a healthy indoor environment.
Windows and doors: Provide light and beauty without creating indoor air pollution.
Electrical systems: Create electro-magnetic fields. Healthy systems reduce your exposure to electro-magnetic fields. They make your life easier.
Interior cleaning products: Do not have to make you sick. With natural products your home or office can sparkle and still be healthy.
Pest control: You do not have to expose your family and employees or the environment to harmful toxins. You can get rid of pests using nontoxic products.
