http://www.BIFMALeadershipConference.com.

Come to Orlando, Florida next month for a truly

transformative experience!

Roger Martin has served as dean of the

Rotman School of Management since September 1,

1998. In January, he will bring his perspective on

“Design Thinking: The Next Competitive Advantage”

to BIFMA’s Leadership Conference in Orlando, Florida.

Roger writes extensively on

design and is a regular

columnist for the

B u s i n e s s W e e k . c o m

Innovation and Design

Channel. In 2010, he was

named one of the 27 most

influential designers in the

world by Business Week.

Other speakers who will address this year’s

Leadership Conference are David Walker, Managing

Director of Dyson B2B, Inc., on “Reinventing Existing

Technologies for Market Leadership”; Aidan Chopra of

Google on “The Changing Face of Technology and

Potential Impacts“; and Fred Keller, Chairman and CEO

of Cascade Engineering on “External Innovation - A

Strategy for Compounding Growth”.

Sustainability will be addressed on two

fronts. Paul Shahriari, BIFMA’s lead level trainer, will

address the lastest developments with the

ANSI/BIFMA e3-2010 Furniture Sustainability

After the best jobs report in many months, the economic picture

appears to be changing. IHS Global Insight’s calendar-year macro economic

growth forecasts have edged up to 2.7% for 2010 and 2.3% for 2011. Third-

quarter overall GDP growth came in at 2.0%, with little growth in final sales, a

big boost from inventory accumulation, and a big drag from foreign trade as

inventory rebuilding drew in imports. Consumer spending growth stepped up

to 2.6% from 2.2% in the second quarter. Businesses are flush with cash and

are addressing replacement needs neglected during the recession. Since

productivity gains seem to be running out of steam, it does appear that

businesses will need to keep adding workers even if growth stays soft.

Office furniture orders and shipments came in higher than forecast

during the third quarter of 2010 as vacancy rates abruptly plunged to levels last

seen a year ago. Furthermore, spending by businesses runs counter to the rest

of the economy and has benefitted office furniture demand substantially.

Annualized shipments for calendar year 2010 are expected to grow 4.4% as

growth in the second half of the year makes up the losses in the first half.

In 2011, shipments should grow at a more rapid 8.3%. Orders are

growing at a vigorous 9.3% this year and are expected to slow towards a more

sustainable 5.6% growth rate in 2011.

Office Furniture Industry Outlook Summary

Denny Ankrum Advanced Ergonomics Dennis Ankrum was a key participant in the development of BIFMA's

Ergonomic Guidelines and was also very involved with the Human Factors and

Ergonomics Society over the years. We were saddened to learn of his recent

passing. Denny had been fighting cancer for some time and died peacefully at

his home in Chicago, with his wife Sharon and son Carl by his side.

Denny will be remembered by all who met him for his humor, his

directness, and his intellect. He did his homework, and he wasn’t afraid to

challenge all comers if their ideas

were not supported by sound

ergonomics evidence. Denny wrote a

number of articles on vision and

computer work, and was involved in

the BIFMA ERGONOMIC GUIDE-

LINES G1-2002, and the accompany-

ing BIFMA Ultimate Test For Fit

document.

His ready smile exposed

his unbridled enthusiasm and passion

for his cause. His energy was infectious and he will be missed by all who knew

him. BIFMA has been honored by Sharon Ankrum with a gift of Denny’s

collection of ergonomics research articles. The collection began with Chris Grant

at the University of Michigan and has been built up through Denny’s efforts.

BIFMA’s Ergonomics Subcommittee will be the new curator of these documents

and we are thankful to the Ankrum family for their generosity.

Denny was an auto mechanic, a writer, and big fan of Texas music.

He was the web master for www.Office-ergo.com, a top ranked ergonomics web

site. In accordance with his wishes, there was a gathering, with music of course,

to celebrate his life on October 17, 2010 at the Zen Life & Meditation Center in

Oak Park, IL.

We should

all live so well, and

give so much. Our

heartfelt thanks to

Denny Ankrum for his

many hours of service

to this industry.

We extend a warm welcome to each of

the following new members in each category.

Official Designation of The “ANSI/BIFMAe3-2010 Furniture Sustainability Standard”

Notification of approval of the BIFMA Furniture Sustainability

Standard as an ANSI standard occurred in the American National Standards

Institute’s "Standards Action" publication on Friday, November 26. NSF

International has designated the e3 standard and publication makes it official

as of 11-11-10 when they began that process. The standard is now called the

"ANSI/BIFMA e3-2010 Furniture Sustainability Standard.”

Congratulations to all of you who worked on the standard and the

work groups that are tasked with the detail of understanding each and every

credit in the various sections of the standard. That work continued during the

long wait for final approval. Many work group members helped address

requests for interpretations on various parts of the standard. 55 opinions were

rendered and all are posted on the BIFMA website at

http://www.bifma.org/public/e3interps.html.

The standard is also ready for proposals to add or change any of its

credits. An “Issue Document” needs to be submitted for that purpose and

those are available from NSF or BIFMA.

Finally, there are now over 650 products that have been level

certified. Not bad for a newborn.

Why Use ANSI Standards?The American National Standards Institute (ANSI) is a Federation of

members representing …

• Academia

• Individuals

• Government

• Manufacturing

• Trade Associations

• Professional Societies

• Service Organizations

• Standards Developers

• Consumer and Labor Interests

• and many more

ANSI accredits U.S. Standards Developers, U.S. Technical Interest Groups, and

conformity assessment systems. BIFMA has been an accredited ANSI

Standards Developer for over 25 years.

ANSI has identified the following reasons to utilize Accredited

Standards Developers:

• Assures procedures to be used in connections with ANSI are

characterized by openness, due process, and consensus.

• Adds value to, and safeguard integrity of, national standards.

• Ensures willingness to coordinate and cooperate with other

ANSI-accredited standards developers in an effort to minimize conflict and

duplication.

• Provides some legal insulation: may reduce anti-trust and product

liability exposure.

• Maximizes market and regulatory compliance.

Many thanks to the numerous volunteers that constantly work to add value

and integrity to the ANSI/BIFMA furniture standards!

Wondering what the requirements for furniture will look like in the

next version of LEED? The USGBC released the long-awaited drafts of the

LEED 2012 requirements in November. Focusing on furniture emissions, there

are some significant changes proposed.

The 2009 LEED-CI: Commercial Interiors IEQ 4.5 Low-Emitting

Systems Furniture and Seating credit has been combined into a new IEQ 4

Low-Emitting Interiors credit. This new credit replaces the previous low-emit-

ting materials credits for paints/coatings, adhesives/sealants, composite

wood, flooring, and furniture. The new credit awards up to five points if 90%

or greater compliance is achieved in each of the five categories: ceilings, walls,

floors, insulation and furniture. This new credit also takes a matrix approach,

allowing projects to combine partial compliance in categories (for example,

50% compliance in the flooring and furniture categories), to earn points. This

provides incentive for projects to use as many low-emitting materials as

possible, where previously it was an all-or-nothing approach.

This new IEQc4 Low-Emitting Interiors credit expands the scope to

apply to all furniture, not just systems furniture and seating. Importantly, the

credit no longer references proprietary standards or specific certification

programs. Instead, the new credit requires furniture to comply with the

low-emitting credits in the ANSI/BIFMA e3 Furniture Sustainability Standard

(Section 7.6.1 and 7.6.2). At first glance, the formula to determine compliance

for furniture may appear confusing. However, the goal is simple: the credit is

designed to calculate 100% compliance in the furniture category when at

least 90% of furniture meets ANSI/BIFMA e3 7.6.1, AND at least 50% meets

ANSI/BIFMA e3 7.6.2. This formula introduces the health-based California

chronic reference exposure level (CREL) requirements at a transitional level to

allow furniture manufacturers time to develop products that are compliant

with these criteria, while still relying on the current ANSI/BIFMA X7.1

requirements of LEED 2009. This transitional approach is consistent with

LEED 2012 Drafts Available for Comment

The California Environmental Protection Agency's Office of

Environmental Health Hazard Assessment (OEHHA) has listed "wood dust" as

a chemical “known to the State to cause cancer” under the Safe Drinking Water

and Toxic Enforcement Act of 1986 (Proposition 65). Inclusion of wood dust

on the Proposition 65 list requires that products containing this "chemical"

include warning labels effective December 18, 2010.

At the last BIFMA Government Affairs Committee meeting, a

request was made for BIFMA Staff to seek clarification from the California

Attorney General's Office on the need for furniture producers to label products

being sold into California. Deputy Attorney General, Susan Fiering confirmed

that furniture products WILL NOT REQUIRE WARNING LABELS (unless further

sawing or sanding is required in order for the product to be assembled and

used by the customer). Businesses that fall under the law and do not provide

warnings may be subject to civil lawsuits and face stiff penalties as high as

$2,500 per day, per violation. Proposition 65 places the burden for

determining if a warning is required on the person or business responsible for

creating the exposure to the chemical.

Our thanks to Gary Bell, Robert Hupe and the entire Government

Affairs Committee for monitoring these issues for the benefit of the entire

industry.

Proposition 65 Warning Labels Opinion

Draft Out For Public Comment, cont.(Continued from Page 4)

the furniture emissions requirements of the ANSI/ASHRAE/USGBC/IES 189.1

Standard for the Design of High Performance Green Buildings, which is

intended for adoption as a green building code.

This new credit also defines requirements for manufacturers to make

first party claims in order to demonstrate compliance. And, this new credit is

available today as a pilot credit that can be used on current LEED 2009 pro-

jects. You can learn more at this link:

http://www.leeduser.com/credit/Pilot-Credits/PC21.

While there are conflicting opinions about this new credit, BIFMA

supports the furniture portion of the proposed credit and plans to submit

comments to that effect. We urge you to review the credit and submit your

own comments as well. The IEQ Low-Emitting Interiors credit is specifically

listed on pages 84-86 in the Interior Design & Construction (ID&C) LEED

Rating System draft (Nov 2010) and on pages 135-137 in the Building Design

& Construction (BD&C) draft. Other furniture related credits you should review

include the MR Credit - Purchasing Durable Goods, on pages 69-70 in the

Existing Building Operations & Maintenance (EBOM) draft. We suggest

commenting that this MR credit should be modified to instead reference the

furniture requirements of the EQ Low-Emitting Interiors credit for consistency.

Public comments are accepted through January 14th, 2011. Please

A Task Team completed their study of Section 13 – Arm Strength

Test Vertical and proposed a revision to the standard. Special thanks to John

Norton of Herman Miller, Jeff Musculus of Steelcase, and Melissa DuBuis of

Steelcase for their research and direction on this test. Several others on the

Task Team contributed time and effort to help resolve test concerns and

minimize variation for Arm Strength testing. Votes per the ANSI Canvass are

due by December 27. If the ANSI Canvass is favorable, then BIFMA anticipates

that there will be a new edition of X5.1 General Purpose Office Chairs in early

2011.

The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has formed an Alternatives

Assessment Task Team for recommendations to replace decaBPE as a fire

retardant chemical. Scientists believe there are health risks associated with

decaBPE. They are

seeking to provide a list

of 20 recommendations

to be assessed in 2011

with a final recommenda-

tion from the EPA in

December of 2011.

Members of this team are

from the aeronautical,

electronics, automotive,

textile, and furniture

industries. Our furniture representatives include: Gabe Wing of Herman Miller,

Aaron Smith of Kimball, and consultant Harry Baikowitz.

A Task Group is currently evaluating the proposed ISO Chair Measuring Device

(CMD). The Task Group measured chairs from several different BIFMA member

companies in June and is finding that the proposed ISO CMD using a probe

method to measure lumbar is faster and more accurate than previous CMD

models. Consultant Tom Rademaker attended a workshop in Hamburg

Germany in early October to train other countries in the use of the proposed

CMD with probes. The comments for the proposed CMD were universally

favorable. An ISO Technical Report for CMD methods should be available in

the first quarter of 2011. Thank you to Tom for his significant efforts in

leading and coordinating our CMD progress!
