VOC Compliant Meaning

Last updated:

Why is it important to understand the VOC compliant meaning? VOC is an acronym for Volatile Organic Compounds. According to the United States Environment  Protection Authority (EPA), the governing body in the USA that advises the government on national environment standards, volatile organic compounds are compounds (substances) that have low water solubility and high vapor pressure. Many man-made VOCs are chemicals that are regularly used in the production and manufacturing of paints, pharmaceuticals, and refrigerants.  VOCs are also used in the creation of dry-cleaning agents, hydraulic fluids, paint thinners, and petroleum-based fuels. So if you work in fields that require the use of VOCs it is important to understand the VOC compliant meaning, laws,  and restrictions in your area.

The Environment Protection Authority (EPA) developed the statutes and compliance rules manufacturers must abide by to produce and provide VOCs for industrial, commercial, and residential uses. There are three primary statutes/regulations determined by the Environment Protection  Authority (EPA) that are used by manufacturers for compliance certification: 

  • CAA211 – Transportation Fuel Standards (primarily gasoline and diesel) 
  • 40 CF65: Consolidated Federal Air Rule 
  • CAA112(b) Hazardous Air Pollutants  

How Can You Ensure You Are In Compliance With The EPA’s VOC Standards?

Depending on where your business is located and what applications you require the use of VOCs for, there may be different rules that apply to your facility. The best way to make sure you are in compliance with the EPA is to work with chemical suppliers like Ecolink who will help you understand the rules that apply to you and find the best, compliant VOCs for your needs.
