SCS Global Services is a leading independent certification body for the green building sector. Recently the body paid tribute to three companies – Prosoco, Marvin Windows, and KI. These companies have SCS-certified or evaluated products that are among the top 10 companies honored for innovative products for 2015 by BuildingGreen. In the 13th consecutive year of the award, BuildingGreen, publisher of Environmental Building News, highlighted “transformative products [that] eliminate toxic chemicals and fossil fuels, and improve building and site performance.”
Prosoco is a national manufacturer of products that clean, protect and maintain concrete, brick and stone. Prosoco’s Fluid-Applied Cat 5 Air Barrier System is a high-performance alternative to sheet goods. It has a basis on a high-performance “hybrid” polymer chemistry that uses no solvents or isocyanates. Prosoco further adapted it to also remove phthalate plasticizers. This system received certification under the SCS Indoor Advantage Gold standard. This is the industry’s toughest indoor air quality certification. Prosoco’s concrete coating and building construction coating and sealant products also received Gold Standard.
