The Ecological Impact of Floor Sanding: An Innovative Perspective
Introduction
In today's world, where environmental awareness is increasingly paramount, the floor sanding services offered by Plancher Deluxe in Montreal, Laval, Longueuil, as well as on the North Shore and South Shore, stand out not only for their quality but also for their contribution to a healthy indoor environment. Let's take a closer look at how our floor sanding services play a crucial role in promoting environmental health.
A Healthier Indoor Air
Reduction of Polluting Agents
- Elimination of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs): Old flooring can emit harmful VOCs. Our sanding process removes these layers, thereby reducing the presence of these pollutants in the air.
- Removal of Allergens: Dust and allergens accumulated in old floors are eliminated during sanding, creating a healthier indoor environment.
Use of Eco-friendly Products
We favor the use of water-based varnishes and finishes, which are less harmful to the environment and to indoor air quality, unlike traditional solvent-based products.
Preservation of Natural Resources
Renovation Instead of Replacement
- Durability of Floors: By renovating existing floors instead of replacing them, we contribute to the preservation of forests and the reduction of raw material consumption.
- Valuing Old Floors: Sanding historic floors preserves architectural heritage while avoiding the exploitation of new resources.
Reduction of Carbon Footprint
Optimization of Travel
Our local approach, serving Montreal and its surroundings, minimizes long-distance travel, thereby reducing our carbon footprint.
Sustainable Waste Management
Recycling and Reuse
- Recycling of Wood Dust: The dust generated by sanding is collected and often recycled, used in other production processes, thus reducing waste.
- Reuse of Materials: Wood residues can be reused in other applications, limiting the amount of waste sent to landfills.

We are committed to educating our clients about the ecological benefits of floor sanding. By choosing environmentally friendly methods and materials, our clients actively participate in protecting the planet.
