Recognized Third-Party Certifiers under the Formaldehyde Emission Standards for Composite Wood Products Rule

This page contains the names of Third-Party Certifiers (TPCs) recognized to provide certification services under the Formaldehyde Emission Standards for Composite Wood Products Rule. All producers of composite wood panels are required to have their products tested by an EPA-recognized TPC to ensure their products are compliant with the formaldehyde emission standards found in the rule. Regulated composite wood products include hardwood plywood (HWPW), particleboard (PB), medium-density fiberboard (MDF), and thin MDF. TPCs are accredited and overseen by EPA-recognized Accreditation Bodies (ABs). This list of EPA-recognized TPCs will be updated periodically as more applicants are approved.
