The Classen group is the only producer and supplier of floorings whose entire product range is now certified with the "Blue Angel", the label of the "Eco-Institute of Cologne". This means that Classen is not only among the largest producers of laminate flooring in the world, but is currently the only manufacturer with certified low-emission pro­ducts throughout from a sustainable low-emission production. All floorings from the Classen group have been proven to achieve the highest rating in terms of eco­logy and application, ensures the manufacturer and emphasises: with Classen floorings, the consumer can be assured that they are purchasing healthy-living and entirely emission-free products - fundamentally ecological and fun­damentally made in Germany.
