Sustainability and social responsibility
Good for your home, good for the environment
At Komar, we are convinced that companies can make a major contribution to protecting our environment. That is why we always want to ensure that our company operates as sustainably as possible in terms of production methods and energy supply.
We are always keen to provide our customers with high quality products that fulfil all possible requirements in terms of the environment and sustainability. That is why we at Komar are proud to hold the following seals of approval and awards.
FSC®Sustainability and environmental protection are a matter of utmost importance to Komar. This is why we are proud to be able to contribute towards a better environment, as is proven by the our FSC® certification. The FSC® certificate refers to the so-called wood supply chain. It guarantees that only wood sourced from responsibly managed forests is used in Komar products and that this wood is traceable in all production and retail processes: from forest manager to photomural. The wood used to produce Komar photomurals comes from sustainably managed forests – and fulfils with economic, ecological and social requirements.
GreenguardOur printing inks have been awarded the prestigious ‘Greenguard Indoor Air Quality Certified®’ seal.
Emission labelEmissions testing is carried out in accordance with the strict French ‘VOC’ emissions label. In the course of the test procedure, our products received an A+ rating, which corresponds to the best value. The wallpapers were tested for indoor pollutant emissions under strict conditions in a climate chamber.
None of Komar’s products contain these plasticisers. We deliberately avoid these types of plastic in order to protect you and the environment from harmful substances. Even without PVC, our murals have a fabric-like and velvety surface texture.
Textiles VertrauenOur non-woven wallpaper has been awarded the ‘Confidence in Textiles’ seal of approval. This seal guarantees ecological and socially responsible production conditions throughout the entire supply chain. The fleece, which has also been tested for harmful substances, is a textile product that is harmless to humans and the environment.
The tests for harmful substances include legally prohibited substances, legally regulated substances, substances known to be harmful to health and parameters for health care. The seal we have received confirms that our nonwoven products are absolutely harmless with regard to the above criteria.
Our murals do not contain polyvinyl chloride (PVC). When you buy a Komar wallpaper, you are not only doing something good for the environment but also for yourself.
CEOur wallpapers are tested in accordance with the building standard DIN EN 151:2007 + A1:2011 for their fire behaviour (B-s1, d0, flame retardant) and release of hazardous substances/emissions into the indoor air.
