Abstract
Approaches are described for determining the indoor environmental impact of common office equipment. In the authors´ experience, the majority of symptoms associated with product-related chemical emissions fall into two categories; mucous membrane irritation and odor-related phenomena. Selected case histories illustrate the impact common office equipment can have upon indoor environments and their human occupants
