Evaluation:
No biocides, organic halogenated compounds, pyrethroids or phthalates in measurable con-
centrations could be detected in the panels submitted for testing. All measurements are below
the detection limits specific to the analysis. With the exception of the AOX-value as well as the
EOX-value. For example, these are for STEICOtherm SD 30 mg/kg as well as 1.69 mg/kg. For
STEICOunderfloor was detected only an AOX-value with 10 mg/kg.
