A brief insight
What contribution do mafi wood floors make to QNG?
Based on the QNG requirements catalog (Appendix 313; Version 1.3), we at mafi can offer excellent solutions for the following areas:
- 1. General requirements for the quality of the building
- 2.3. Floor coverings - Multi-layer parquet
- 3.1. Installation materials - Installation materials for wooden wall and floor coverings
- 6.5. Coatings/varnishes on metal, wood, and plastic - Coatings of wood products with oils
Overall requirement for the quality of the building
Guideline value: Product documentation and declaration of SVHC content < 0.10%
Explanation: SVHC is a collective term for “substances of very high concern” that are classified according to the REACH certification procedure. According to QNG requirements, these substances must not make up more than 0.1% of the product.
Supporting documents: Unfortunately, a manufacturer's declaration is sufficient in this case.
Our solution: mafi goes one step further and confirms the safety of its products and also provides an independent test report in accordance with AGBB.

Multi-layer parquet
Guideline value: Compliance with AgBB scheme and, in the case of smoked wood, ammonia ≤ 0.1 mg/m3
Explanation: Section 2.3 deals with VOC (volatile organic compound) values, emissions, and hazardous substances in building products.
Supporting documents: Here, too, a manufacturer's declaration is sufficient. Expert reports may also be provided on a voluntary basis.
Our solution: mafi is happy to voluntarily provide a wide range of certificates demonstrating top values in terms of VOCs, emissions, and the like.

Coating wood products with oils
Guideline: Compliance with the AgBB scheme
Explanation: Coatings on wood products in particular often contain substances that are harmful to health.
Supporting documents: Technical data sheet and AgBB quality
Our solution: mafi finishes its floorboards with natural oils. The specific composition and proof of safety can be found in the AgBB certificate, among other places.
