Dell Tech provides comprehensive VOC (Volatile Organic Compounds) compliance services for chemical products sold across the United States and Canada. Whether you are formulating a cleaning product, paint, adhesive, personal care item, or aerosol, we help you meet VOC limits set by both federal and regional authorities.
Our in-house team’s deep regulatory expertise to ensure your product is compliant, correctly labeled, and ready for retail, industrial, or cross-border distribution.
VOC emissions contribute to ground-level ozone and smog, prompting strict regulations in high-population and environmentally sensitive regions. In North America, products are often subject to overlapping rules from both federal and state or provincial governments.
Non-compliance can result in fines, product seizures, retail rejections, and supply chain disruptions. We help you avoid these issues with accurate testing, clear documentation, and region-specific labeling guidance.
We conduct VOC content calculations using validated methods to determine compliance with CARB, CEPA, and other jurisdictional limits.
We assess your product against the correct VOC limits for its category and intended market. Where applicable, we identify exemptions or reformulation strategies.
We ensure your VOC declarations are correctly worded and positioned on product labels, including aerosol VOC percentages, bilingual requirements for Canada, and compliance statements for Amazon and retail submissions.
We prepare and validate the documentation needed for government inspections, distributor compliance checks, and e-commerce platform requirements.
VOC regulations apply to a wide range of chemical products, including:
Our team will help you determine whether your product is regulated and what standards apply based on its category, market, and packaging format.
With over 45 years of regulatory experience, Dell Tech has become a trusted partner for businesses navigating VOC compliance across North America. We combine technical accuracy with real-world regulatory insight to ensure your product meets every applicable rule—without unnecessary delays or guesswork.
VOC compliance means that your product meets the maximum allowable concentration of volatile organic compounds set by local or national authorities. These limits vary by product category and region.
No. California has the most stringent limits, followed by other states in the OTC regions. Dell Tech helps you identify the strictest applicable limit and ensures your product is compliant across jurisdictions.
Not always. Canada sets national VOC limits under CEPA, while the U.S. system is more state-driven. A product that meets one country’s rules may not be compliant in the other. Dell Tech ensures your formulation meets both.
We review your product type, ingredients, use case, and packaging to determine whether it falls under VOC regulations. If testing is required, we provide a complete path to compliance.
Yes, especially for aerosol products and any listing flagged as “hazardous” under Amazon’s restricted products policy. Dell Tech provides VOC calculation results and compliance documentation suitable for Amazon submission.
You may need to reformulate, relabel, or limit sales in certain markets. We can assist with identifying exemptions or exploring alternative compliant formulations.
