The publications below provide information related to CARB's airborne toxic control measure (ATCM) to reduce formaldehyde emissions from composite wood products. The ATCM focuses on three composite wood products: hardwood plywood (HWPW), particleboard (PB), and medium density fiberboard (MDF) and requires HWPW, PB, MDF and finished good such as flooring, cabinets, picture frames, to comply with CARB's stringent formaldehyde emission standards.
CARB's ATCM applies to manufacturers, distributors, importers, fabricators, retailers, and third-party certifiers of composite wood products and finished goods that contain composite wood products, that are sold, offered for sale, supplied, used, or manufactured for sale in California.
