VOC Regulations

• VOCs are regulated nationally, regionally or by air district or county.
• DuPont technical data sheets give the ready-to-use VOC limit for the product line.
• DuPont publishes VOC compliance charts which indicate the proper mix ratio of our products to meet California and or National VOC content limits.
• Mixing in a ratio other than what is specified on the compliance charts puts you at risk of being out of compliance.
• The fines and penalties associated with VOC violations are widely variable and can be based on the amount of non-compliant product used over a period of time.
• New products are introduced on a regular basis so be sure to post the most recent VOC compliance chart. Also make sure painters are familiar with its contents. Always know where and how to access VOC compliant charts should you be asked.
