Hi All,
Isn't it wonderful to own a brand new, sleakest design, wonderful aerodynamic body car?? But there's something to let you people out there CHOKE!!
People often associate with new cars with a 'new car smell.' But do you people out there know that the so called 'new car smell' is toxic?? It actually contains VOCs (Volatile Organic Compound) which seeps out from YOUR new leather seats, glue, vinyl and upholstery. Some of them includes cancer-causing toxins such as benzene, styrene and formaldehyde.
Controlled studies have found that VOCs can cause headaches, throat or eye-irritation, drowsiness and confusion. Studies has shown that prolonged exposure to some of the chemicals can lead to cancer!!
The VOCs levels inside the car is much higher than any buildings we've researched.
So whenever you go to the showroom to look at your car-to-be, ask the salepeople for IOGENIC treatment to help you solve your 'new car smell.'
