Low-VOC Material Selection AI
AI selection of low-emitting materials for indoor air quality.
Definition
Low-VOC Material Selection AI helps specify materials with low volatile organic compound emissions for healthy indoor environments. It verifies material emissions certifications, tracks compliant products, and ensures projects meet indoor air quality requirements for LEED and WELL certification.
In Depth
Indoor air quality requirements increasingly mandate low-VOC (Volatile Organic Compound) materials for paints, coatings, adhesives, sealants, and flooring. AI helps specifiers select products that meet the emissions requirements of LEED, WELL, GreenGuard, and California Section 01350 while satisfying the performance requirements of the project specification.
The selection process involves matching the performance requirements (adhesion, durability, color range, application method) against the emissions certification data for available products. AI maintains a database of certified products and their performance characteristics, filtering for products that satisfy both the VOC emissions limits and the project's performance specification.
