The objective of the paper is to investigate the environmental and health impacts of the common flooring materials. The paper presents a numerical simulation of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) emissions from flooring surface covering. VOCs emissions are mostly dangerous pollutants with a negative health impact on the human body and carcinogenic risk. The comparative simulation of emission for single flooring materials under standard test conditions was performed. The significant VOCs emissions from nylon carpet, linoleum, vinyl, laminate and hardwood flooring are compared. The results of a chemical analysis simulation confirmed that commonly used flooring surfaces fall into the category of polluting materials.
