AWARDS & CERTIFICATIONS
GREENGUARD Indoor Air Quality Certification
In September 2008, our
entire line of stack, banquet, and
restaurant seating was awarded GREENGUARD
Indoor Air Quality and GREENGUARD Children &
Schools Certifications for low-emitting
materials!

database for all MTS certified products.
GREENGUARD certification is an
internationally recognized product emissions
certification and label for manufacturers of
low emitting indoor materials, furnishings
and processes. Products undergo rigorous
third party testing to determine their
impact on indoor air quality, with
requirements for ongoing testing and
verification.
One of the most effective ways to battle
indoor air pollution is to reduce it at the
source. By using low-emitting GREENGUARD
Certified products and materials, one can
lower the amount of indoor air pollutants to
a fraction of the current levels.
GREENGUARD Certified products are
recognized and recommended by leading
sustainable building programs, including:
- US Green Building Council (USGBC)
LEED Rating System
- National Association of Home
Builders (NAHB) Green Building
Guidelines
- Green Guide for Health Care
- Collaborative for High Performance
Schools (CHPS)
- New York City Department of Design
and Construction Sustainable Design
Specifications, and other local green
building programs.
