April 2, 2015
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission has launched an investigation into laminate flooring sold by Lumber Liquidators that allegedly contains unsafe levels of formaldehyde.
The probe could take months. The laminates' potentially high formaldehyde levels were exposed during a CBS “60 Minutes” segment on March 1. Lumber Liquidators has denied that the glue in its flooring contains high levels of the chemical compound.
