To what extent is the production of Eurothane boards environmentally friendly and what about the environmental friendliness of the boards themselves?

0

During the production of Eurothane no CFCs, HCFCs or HFCs are used. Recticel has actively development the means to produce CFC & HCFC-free PUR insulation boards. For our efforts we received the first prize in the environmental award for industry in 1994 for the production of CFC-free boards. Being environmentally friendly goes beyond not using CFCs and HCFCs. Eurothane insulation boards have a very high insulation value (very low λ-value) and this contributes to an important energy saving. As a consequence the emissions from the heating system and power generating plant are lowered considerably, thus contributing to the improvement of the environment and reducing global warming.
