Do Just One Thing
Particleboard is a common material made of compressed wood chips, resin and adhesives, and it's used in furniture and to build walls, floors and cabinets inside our houses. The problem? Most particleboard can off-gas chemicals like formaldehyde, which can create an unhealthy home environment. Since ripping out everything made of particleboard isn’t a green or economical option, one way to prevent unhealthy gases is to add a coat of water-based, nontoxic wood sealer to walls, cabinets and other particleboard products to make it impenetrable.
