What are VOCs? Why are they found in footwear products?

Some of the materials used in the construction of footwear can have inherent odors.  Once the shoebox is opened, the accumulated solvent vapors will be released, resulting in a strong odor that can be harmful to health.

As a result, more and more countries have opted for guidelines to reduce concentrations of VOC in consumer products. You need to be aware of the VOC requirements for your products and be sure that you comply.
