Formaldehyde

Formaldehyde has traditionally been used as part of the binder in glass mineral wool insulation. Although there is no health risk with the traditional product, formaldehyde at higher levels may cause irritation and sensitivity.

POLYGOLD PURE formaldehyde free insulation utilises an innovative new binder that eliminates binder-related formaldehyde emissions during manufacturing and once installed, will not emit formaldehyde indoors. No formaldehyde means fewer things to worry about.
