May is National Asthma and Allergy Awareness Month, a month dedicated to building understanding, educating, and advocating for the 65 million Americans who live with asthma and allergies. Optimizing indoor air quality is critical, as indoor air has been found to be up to five times more polluted than outdoor air, according to the EPA.
Knauf’s Performance+ products are designed for sound control, low dust and superior fire rating. To meet the Asthma & Allergy Friendly® certification standards, the Knauf Performance+ Acoustic Panel was tested for low emission of volatile organic compounds (VOCs). In relation to material science, the panel was assessed for chemicals and allergenic properties. As the only formaldehyde-free fiberglass acoustic panel on the market, homeowners can easily add the Knauf Insulation panels to spaces where sound and comfort matter most like nurseries, home offices or theater rooms.
