The choice of building materials can have a significant impact on indoor air quality. Many traditional building materials contain volatile organic compounds (VOCs) that can be released into the air, leading to health issues such as respiratory problems and allergies. However, there are now alternatives available that are low in VOCs and promote better indoor air quality. Examples include low VOC paints, formaldehyde-free insulation, and natural flooring materials. By selecting these materials, builders can create healthier living and working environments for occupants, improving their overall well-being.
