October is National Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) Awareness Month. It’s an important reminder for contractors to know that many building materials like fiberglass insulation can release dust particles or harmful volatile organic compounds (VOCs) into the air. It’s critical to choose insulation that meets rigorous standards for healthier indoor air.
Knauf Performance+® is the first portfolio of fiberglass insulation that’s Asthma & Allergy Friendly® Certified and Verified Healthier AirTM. Plus, it’s the only portfolio of insulation that’s formaldehyde-free.
That makes Performance+® a wise choice because it supports healthier IAQ for fabricators, contractors, and future building occupants.
