The “Nissan NES M0403 Volatile organic compounds (VOC) in cabin parts” standard developed by the Nissan automobile company describes a procedure for determining the amount of volatile organic compounds (VOC) evaporation from parts installed in the vehicle cabin. The table within the standard shows applicable parts that are intended to cover all destinations. Parts and materials other than those shown in the table are determined by agreement between the relevant parties. Relevant parts not listed in the table are included by module units. It is expected that these will be added to the list after further studies between relevant parties.

Volatile organic compounds from cabinet parts are classified as follows:
The parts to which the standard is applicable are included in the standard as follows:
VOC measurements are made on the parts on the vehicle. Regardless of the vehicle body (sedan or wagon), the amount of evaporation from each part must comply with the following numerical values:
It has always been good practice to limit exposure to products containing volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Safe levels of volatile organic compounds may vary depending on guidelines and standards set by different organizations. In general, a total VOC concentration of less than 0,5 mg/m3 is considered acceptable.
Volatile organic compounds are measured in multiple ways, and measurement results are expressed in micrograms of air per cubic meter (μg/m3), milligrams of air per cubic meter (mg/m3), parts per million (ppm), or parts per billion (ppb).
VOC measurements often vary, so it is important to refer to specific regulations provided by the country or region's regulatory authorities. Additionally, sensitive individuals may experience problems with lower VOC levels even if they are within recommended thresholds. As a result, monitoring vehicle cabin air quality and implementing measures to minimize VOC emissions and exposure are important steps in maintaining a safe and healthy indoor environment.
High levels of VOCs in indoor air can lead to a variety of health problems, including irritation of the eyes, nose, and throat, headaches, dizziness, allergic reactions, and long-term effects on the respiratory and neurological systems. In some cases, some volatile organic compounds have been found to have carcinogenic properties and increase the risk of developing cancer.
One of the challenges with volatile organic compounds is that they can persist in indoor environments for long periods of time and contribute to chronic exposure. The release of volatile organic compounds can occur not only during the application of products, but also over time as these chemicals are released into the air.
