Off-gassing

Off-gassing is the process by which volatile organic compounds are released from composite deck boards after installation. Exposure to Volatile Organic Compounds can cause both short term and long term health impacts for people and animals. Off-gassing is a decking industry problem that standard composite manufacturers choose to ignore in favor of cheaper production costs.

The Green Shield Difference

Green Shield does not use Volatile Organic Compounds in our composite deck boards, so you don’t have to worry about the plastics releasing VOCs. No off-gassing VOCs is another way that Green Shield has upgraded our deck boards to provide you, your family, your friends, and your pet's peace of mind. If you recently got a standard composite deck and are concerned about VOCs, Green Shield has re-skin programs available to quickly replace just your deck boards. Let's get your deck the upgrade it deserves!

"VOC-free means you won't have to worry about off-gassing on your new deck. It will be ready to use day one after completion."
