WE'RE PROUD TO ANNOUNCE OUR SFIC CERTIFICATION!
We’re excited to share that SCANTEAK is now recognised as one of the brands under the Singapore Furniture Industries Council (SFIC)'s Sustainability Furniture Mark, under the formaldehyde category. After thorough sampling (Leika Dining Table) and rigorous testing of our materials, we’ve met strict standards to ensure that our furniture emits only minimal levels of formaldehyde, keeping your indoor environment healthier.
THIS CERTIFICATION REFLECTS OUR ONGOING COMMITMENT TO YOUR HEALTH & WELL-BEING
However, it is highly important to note that it does not mean that our products are completely formaldehyde-free, as formaldehyde is present in industrial glue that is used in non-solid wood such as MDF and plywood, which are used in limited parts of our furniture, such as the back of a TV sideboard.
We have also recently engaged with SGS, a renowned European company that is known for conducting heavy industry testing and providing certifications, to do testing on our products and detect formaldehyde levels. We’ve attained a favourable certification, reporting a "not detected" result in our furniture for formaldehyde levels. This means the formaldehyde level is so low that it falls below the detection limit.
At SCANTEAK, we’re committed to keeping these levels to the minimum, so you can confidently bring our pieces into your home. Rest assured, we’ll continue to uphold these high standards so you can shop with peace of mind, knowing that quality and safety are always our priority.
Thank you for trusting us, and here’s to a healthier home for you and your loved ones!
