Fortifiber Gets First NWFA Accepted Product Seal

St. Louis, MO, Aug. 30, 2012 -- The National Wood Flooring Association said that Fortifiber Building Systems Group is the first manufacturer to be approved under the NWFA Accepted Product Seal program.

Fortifiber makes vapor retarder membranes.

The NWFA Accepted Product Seal program identifies wood flooring products that meet or exceed established industry standards.

Fortifiber has earned the seal under the category of moisture inhibitors for wood subfloors.

“NWFA congratulates Fortifiber on taking a leadership role to become the first manufacturer to achieve the NWFA Accepted Product Seal designation,” said Michael Martin, NWFA president and CEO. “The Accepted Product Seal program is designed to provide an immediate way for the industry to recognize companies that are committed to quality manufacturing, as well as to raising the bar by creating an industry benchmark of achievement.”

NWFA also offers an Accepted Eco Product Seal, which identifies finishes, stains and sealers that meet or exceed defined eco-friendly standards.
