(PlasticsToday) -- The
CertiPUR-US certification program for flexible polyurethane (PUR) foam announced
that Douglas Sullivan has been named its executive director. Sullivan succeeds
Bob Luedeka, who was appointed to serve as interim executive director until the
program reached a level of success that allowed for the hiring of a permanent
director. Sullivan's career in the flexible PUR foam industry spans more than
three decades.
CertiPUR-US is a voluntary testing, analysis and certification program
developed by the global flexible polyurethane foam industry. Flexible
polyurethane foams that carry the CertiPUR-US label met testing standards in
independent laboratories and are certified to be low emission for indoor air
quality and made without ozone-depleters, formaldehyde, PBDEs, prohibited
phthalates, lead, mercury and other materials of concern. Products also
must meet certain physical performance and durability standards.
