L&P is a relatively low-volume user of chemicals, with the largest use in our Specialty Foam business. These chemicals have low environmental impact as the manufacturing process yields a small amount of emissions by employing clean manufacturing technologies such as the use of MDI-based foams, as well as reactive and low-emission catalysts and surfactants.
Products meeting CertiPUR-US requirements meet strict clean limits for materials such as:
- Ozone Depleting Compounds
- PBDEs, TDCPP, or TCEP (“Tris”) flame retardants
- Mercury, lead, and other heavy metals
- Formaldehyde
- Phthalates
