Nine products from PPG Industries’ architectural coatings business recently received GREENGUARD Certification, aiming to protect human health through reduced air-quality effects and reduced chemical exposure.
The certification process, supported by the GREENGUARD Environmental Institute, helps manufacturers create interior products and materials that have low chemical emissions, reducing impact on air quality while the products are used. Certifications in several program segments help buyers identify and trust brands and products to use for important projects.
