December 31, 2003—The GREENGUARD Environmental Institute (GEI) recently announced the addition of metal building insulation and HVAC flexible duct media products to Owens Corning’s array of already GREENGUARD-certified products. Earlier this year Owens Corning was awarded certification for PINK fiberglass batts and rolls, ceiling and wall insulations, blowing wools, acoustic floor mat, and black acoustic blanket.
All GREENGUARD Indoor Air Quality Certified Products are evaluated through rigorous emission testing on a regular basis to ensure their continued compliance with the GREENGUARD Standards for low-emitting products. Since common indoor building materials and furnishings release pollutants into the indoor air, the GREENGUARD Environmental Institute certifies products proven to significantly reduce indoor air pollution, so builders, architects, interior designers, and specifying professionals can use these products to create better interior environments. Consumers and specifiers can find certified low-emitting products in the GREENGUARD online Product Guide.
