PRESS RELEASE
MEDFORD, Mass., June 17, 2024– General Insulation, a national wholesale distributor of commercial and industrial insulation products, is proud to announce the Manson Insulation portfolio of HVAC insulation products is now CERTIFIED asthma & allergy friendly®. This product line is formaldehyde-free and boasts low levels of Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs).
The asthma & allergy friendly® Certification Program, established by the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America (AAFA) and Allergy Standards Limited (ASL), ensures that products are more suitable for people with asthma and allergies. To earn this certification, products undergo rigorous physical and chemical testing to confirm that they reduce allergen exposure and limit pollutants in the indoor environment. Given that indoor air is two to five times more polluted than outdoor air according to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), improving indoor air quality is crucial. Manson’s line of formaldehyde-free insulation products significantly contributes to this goal.
“By choosing Manson for their insulation needs, contractors and architects are taking a vital step, contributing to healthier, more comfortable environments for everyone, especially the most vulnerable,” says Dr. John McKeon, CEO of Allergy Standards Ltd.
“These newly certified products align with our commitment to support healthy indoor environments,” says Frank Granara Sr., President and CEO of General Insulation “It further demonstrates our dedication to offering customers quality products that contribute to more comfortable buildings.”
