Interplasp renews the CertiPUR certificate for the next three years

Interplasp renews the CertiPUR certificate for the next three years. We are the only producers in the entire Iberian Peninsula with this certificate.

MThe CERTIPUR label is a voluntary standard for the environment and health properties of flexible polyurethane foams used in bedding and upholstered furniture applications. It specifies substances that may not be used in the production of PU foam and sets stringent maximum limits for hazardous components. 

In daily life, polyurethane foams are essential for comfort and used in a very broad variety of applications. Their unique performances must however be combined with a stringent standard when it comes to environment and health considerations. Downstream industry customers, final consumers and regulators legitimately expect proof of conformity of polyurethane foam with existing legislation but also with the latest scientific knowledge on substances used in formulations in order to minimize any impact on consumer’s health and the environment. 

CertiPUR meets these expectations through a clear commitment to avoid or limit strictly the presence of any potentially harmful substance in flexible polyurethane foams. In this approach it stays ahead of evolving EU legislation, such as the EC General Product Safety Directive 2001/95/EC, the REACH Regulation EC 1907/2006 or other relevant legislation. 

The CertiPUR label enables individual foam producers to reassure bedding and furniture manufacturers on environmental matters, allowing them to give customers and consumers confidence in certified polyurethane foams. 

Interplasp renews the STANDARD 100 by OEKO TEX certificate

The range of flexible and memory foam polyurethane in colors manufactured by Interplasp meets the ecological-human requirements of STANDARD 100 by OEKO-TEX®, according to the certification number 2015OK0117 obtained in 2015.

STANDARD 100 by OEKO-TEX® certification is the world’s leading eco-label. These products have been evaluated and certified by internationally recognized institutes. With this certification, the consumer is assured that the products manufactured by Interplasp have been analyzed for substances that are harmful to health. In addition, our certification is in product class I, the most restrictive in terms of limits, whose Appendix 4 contains the established requirements for baby items.

In order to obtain an OEKO-TEX® certificate, the product is subjected to various tests, having to pass a long list of results where, in addition to the product itself, the requesting company, the quality guarantee and the production processes are analyzed.

The annual renewal of the STANDARD 100 by OEKO-TEX® certificate reinforces our commitment to responsible and sustainable production and consumption.

Environmental protection

Environmental protection plays a fundamental and priority role for Interplasp. Thanks to innovation and our environmental program, we have managed to ensure sustainability without sacrificing production capacity.
We are especially proud of the fact that we do not emit polluting gases, such as methylene chloride or CO2, into the atmosphere. We have the technology (VPF) that helps us to carry out the entire manufacturing process in an isolated (encapsulated) way. All gases generated during foam formation are cleaned by active carbon filters before being released. In this way we guarantee the conservation of the environment and, also, the health of our team.
In addition, in all areas of the company we strive to optimize the energy and resources and be the most respectful of the environment that surrounds us.

Happy Holidays!

Interplasp team wishes you Happy Holidays and a successful New Year!
