Georgia-Pacific Gypsum LLC announced that its mold-resistant DensArmor paperless interior drywall and DensArmor Plus moisture- and mold-resistant paperless interior drywall are now Greenguard Indoor Air Quality Certified. This certification, awarded by Greenguard Environmental Institute, recognizes indoor products that have low emissions of VOCs.
In addition, these products have received the Greenguard Children & Schools Certification. This certification subjects materials to additional emissions testing to identify low emitting products that can be used to provide school children with reduced exposure to indoor pollutants.
“The Greenguard Certification is part of our ongoing commitment to provide high-quality building products that meet the demands of builders and customers,” said David Fleiner, president of Georgia-Pacific’s gypsum and chemical businesses.
The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, the American Lung Association, the World Health Organization, and other public health and environmental organizations view maintaining good indoor air quality as an important issue.
