Great question. This is a very serious issue. At Panel Source we believe greenwashing is out of control and a backlash is coming. If you are concerned about this, you should be.
Our recommendation is to challenge all claims. Ask questions, and don't accept responses that sound ok but have no weight.
At Panel Source in order to alleviate these concerns we get third party certification on as many products as possible. Third party certification helps ensure transparency, integrity and verification. Beware of any company who has industry sponsored certification.
Panel Source is certified by SCSi to be a FSCi Certified supplier. Panel Sources fire retardant product Pyroblocki is certified by Intertek Testing Services to meet the Class A fire rating.
If you see any greenwashing going on, send us a note, and we will write about it in the Green Bulletin. A donation will be made to forest ethics on your behalf.
