In March 2002, anticipating the trend towards healthier and more environmentally smart building products, Johns Manville became the first, and today is still the only, fiber glass insulation manufacturer to stop adding formaldehyde to building insulation as a binder. Instead, Johns Manville uses an acrylic binder that eliminates all binder-related emissions of formaldehyde during manufacturing. The acrylic binder also reduces concerns about formaldehyde in the indoor environment once installed.
JM Formaldehyde-free™ insulation passes California's stringent Environmental Specification 1350, the toughest indoor air quality test, with a non-detect for all pollutants. As a result, the state of California notified JM that JM Formaldehyde-free™ insulation is recognized as an approved product for use in school renovation and new building projects.
Overall, our Formaldehyde-free™ product line reflects Johns Manville’s research and dedication to addressing concerns about indoor environmental quality and offering its customers the most advanced, innovative products available.
When you consider that, it doesn't make sense to specify anything else.
