Abstract By the improvement of chemistry technology, the production and equipment of various building materials composed of complex chemicals have increased. Since pollutants resulting from it have had an adverse effect on air quality, lots of environmental-friendly certification programs reflecting the regulations about these pollutants have operated. Although these environmental-friendly certification programs have directly and indirectly influenced on our daily lives, credibility concerning it does not fully satisfy the expectation. In this paper, among certification programs in forms of legal compulsion, legal voluntariness, and public voluntariness which are currently operating in our country, certification programs of the environmental friendly building materials such as building materials emitting pollutants, certification rules related to E-mark and HB mark, procedures and certification have been investigated, and ‘management about certificate authority’ and ‘procedures of certification operations’ as improvement policy for raising the credibility about them have been suggested.
