No formaldehyde? No problem!

A day when formaldehyde is no longer used in building products is on the way. Consumers are asking for no added formaldehyde options, and many of the world’s largest retailers have pledged to eliminate it. Regulators are taking action as well.

So change is coming. Rather than waiting for it, why not get ready today?

A no added formaldehyde alternative is available now. DuraBind is currently in use with manufacturers of wood composites and is available globally.

So how does DuraBindTM compare to some of the other options currently available?
