Our scientists, engineers and technicians are working hard to help keep people safe and secure. Heads of state, corporate executives and other high profile individuals around the world rely on glazings for windshields and windows, coatings on lightweight ballistic helmets and vests for our troops, to biomedical developments with the artificial heart. Polyurethane chemistry helps make possible products and devices that enhance safety, security and everyday life.
The polyurethane industry, working together through the American Chemistry Council's (ACC) Center for the Polyurethanes Industry (CPI) and the Spray Polyurethane Foam Alliance (SPFA), has launched an enhanced product stewardship program to support further understanding of the benefits of spray polyurethane foam and its continued safe use and handling. A part of this outreach, a new Spray Polyurethane Foam Health and Safety website, www.spraypolyurethane.com, has been launched by CPI and SPFA that contains new materials, literature and posters to increase understanding of spray polyurethane foam (SPF) product stewardship information.
