The low VOC emissions of DuPont surfaces meet the limits speci ed in the California Air Resources Board Regulation for reducing volatile organic compound emissions from consumer products. GREENGUARD Certi cation is a referenced standard for many green building programs such as LEED, the NAHB Green Building Program, and CHPS (Collaborative for High Performance Schools).OUR COMMITMENT TO SUSTAINABLE BUILDING SOLUTIONS DuPont is committed to strategies that drive sustainable growth and help our customers grow their business.
