ECOSE™ TECHNOLOGY• Launched in 2008• One of the largest green chemistry
initiatives in the United States• Bio-based chemistry based on corn
(dextrose)• The dextrose is carbonized to an inert
state• Ecologically superior technology• The binder is durable and resistant to
rodents and insects• The industry followed our lead

• Ecose (equivalent fossil fuel reduction)
– Savings from using a bio based product instead of an oil based product
– In North America alone
FOSSIL FUEL AVOIDANCE

WHAT PART OF YOUR LIFE IS SPENT INDOORS?
90%In fact, the US Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) estimates that the average person receives 72 percent of their chemical exposure in buildings which means the very places most people consider safest paradoxically exposes them to the greatest amounts of potentially hazardous pollutants.
