Any experience with pollutants, outgassing from new furniture or low-pollutant furniture?

Hello Community,

Does anyone have experience with the release of harmful substances from new furniture? Formaldehyde in particular, and the associated complaints?

Have you replaced the furniture, and if so, with what materials? I'm familiar with the Blue Angel certification, etc.

How has the situation improved for you?

Ventilation and heating are of course a given.

Formaldehyde has been banned for decades for use in interiors. If you’re worried, put the green lines on the window, build the formaldehyde into their leaves and use twilights and fabrics, which surprisingly also binds formaldehyde.

Unfortunately, nothing I can say with stressful sources, only that at some point in the nineties in Dortmund, quite a lot of kindergartens have been closed for formaldehyde prevention. All except two were really loaded. One had an insulating layer of sheep wool lying on the suspended ceiling, the other amounts of room plants, including many green lilies. But I can only remember dark, and the internet is also only related to sheep’s wool, and without any evidence, this is also only urbanly legendary:-(

I have had the experience that new furniture does not give formality. No more formaldehyde-containing glues are used to produce chipboards for furniture production.
This continuous groundless talk about formaldehyde was perhaps interesting 40 years ago, not today.
