Knauf Insulation is GREENGUARD Children & Schools CertifiedSM

All of our product lines, including those with our patented ECOSE® Technology, have been certified under this strict standard. No other manufacturer can make this claim.

  • GREENGUARD Children & Schools standard is designed to define low-emitting materials suitable for environments where people, particularly children and sensitive adults, spend extended periods of time. These environments may include schools, daycares, healthcare facilities, homes and commercial spaces.
  • Greenguard Certification is based on criteria used by:

    • The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
    • World Health Organization 
    • U.S. Occupational Safety & Health Administration (OSHA) 
    •  State of Washington
  • Children & Schools certification requirements assure compliance with the CDPH Section 01350 and allow the lower of:
    • No greater than 1/100th of currently-published Threshold Limit Values.
    • No more than half of California’s Chronic Reference Exposure Levels for volatile organic compounds (including formaldehyde).

Knauf Insulation is Formaldehyde Free

Our entire line of building insulation is manufactured using no added formaldehyde.  

Knauf Insulation Meets California Section 01350 Standard

All of our building insulation and commercial insulation lines meet this standard including the requirement that our insulation is formaldehyde free. 

  • The GreenGuard Children and Schools Certification Program’s requirements comply with the State of California’s Department of Public Health Services Standard Practice for Specification Section 01350 for testing chemical emissions from building products used in schools and other environments.

No other insulation company has more lines of insulation that meet these standards.


Why do industry leaders turn to GREENGUARD for certification?

  • GREENGUARD Certification is broadly recognized and accepted by sustainable building programs and building codes worldwide. 
  • As an ISO-IEC Guide 65:1996 accredited, third-party organization, the GREENGUARD Environmental Institute certifies products and materials for low chemical emissions and provides a resource for choosing healthier products and materials for indoor environments.
  • All certified products must meet stringent chemical emissions standards based on established criteria from key public health agencies. GREENGUARD Environmental Institute is a subsidiary of UL labs.

GREENGUARD Children & Schools Certified products can be used to earn valuable credits in:

  • CHPS Best Practices Manual for K-12 schools
  • US Green Building Council's LEED® Green Building Rating Systems
  • Green Guide for Healthcare
  • NAHB Green Building Guidelines
  • Green Globes
  • Regreen
  • and many other building codes, standards and specifications.
