Lowe’s Canada and CertainTeed have partnered to offer DIYers and contractors a revolutionary formaldehyde-absorbing drywall that actively cleans interior air. The home improvement retailer will now stock the industry-only AirRenew Essential Indoor Air Quality (IAQ) Gypsum Board in all its Canadian stores.

“CertainTeed has been the leading manufacturer of cutting-edge, high performance building products for many years, and now our latest innovation is going to be even more accessible to Canadian homeowners and professionals,” said Wayne Edgecombe, vice president of sales for CertainTeed Gypsum Canada. “We are proud to team up with Lowe’s to offer our new state-of-the-art products.”

Featuring industry-first formaldehyde-absorbing technology, AirRenew Essential IAQ Gypsum Board actively cleans the air, offering a solution for healthier interior environments in residential construction and remodeling projects. The AirRenew family of products are GREENGUARD Gold certified and received Environmental Claims Validation (ECV) from UL Environment for permanent formaldehyde absorption.
