Quality Assurance and Safety

GreenFiber has a comprehensive testing program to ensure that GreenFiber products meet the highest quality and safety standards in the industry. Our testing criteria adheres to the regulations for cellulose insulation found in the amended Consumer Product Safety Commission Standard, 16 CFR Part 1209, and the Federal Trade Commission Standard, 16 CFR Part 460. The testing standards are described in the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) C 739. Together, these rules and standards cover the performance and physical attributes of loose-fill thermal cellulose insulation for use in attics or enclosed spaces in housing and other framed buildings.

GreenFiber has an extensive Quality Control (QC) and Assurance program, and is the industry leader in the continuing development of improved QC methodology and testing. In addition to a rigorous internal QC testing, training and documentation program, the company routinely, as a matter of policy, has its product tested by independent laboratories. Although outside testing is not required, it reflects the company's attitude and commitment towards continuous improvement of product quality. Also, GreenFiber has made advancements in the methodology and equipment used in product QC testing. In fact, some of GreenFiber's internally manufactured QC equipment has been purchased by our competitors, and by independent laboratories in both the United States and Canada.

GreenFiber uses several independent laboratories across North America for a variety of testing and certification (T&C) needs. The T&C facilities vary depending on the product application and end use. All of these outside organizations are accredited by the National Voluntary Laboratory Accreditation Program (NVLAP).

According to our Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS), the application of our product requires the use of safety eyewear and a National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) approved N95 or higher disposable or reusable particulate respirator such as a 3M model #8210 or #8511 or equivalent per 29 CFR 1910.134.
