I had not even thought of green for my closets. I become more and more disillusioned as if the product is not healthy why do we continue to manufacture. The green world is good, but when I think that unless I ask, I am buying something that is to some degree highly toxic.

Underfloor, yes PF off-gasses but slower than Urea formaldehyde. My subfloors have PF instead of UF. Anna

I would assume it still off-gases like phenol formaldehyde. I could not find alot about it on the web…

Thanks for this great article. I am about to put some new closets in my house and had California Closets give me a quote. They mentioned that they have changed providers recently for their green particleboard. They now use Boise Evergreen from Boise Cascade (http://www.bc.com/wood/particl.....green.html). I haven’t found much information about how it compares to the other brands of green particleboards. Are you familiar with this brand?
