3G Mermet, Cowpens, S.C., manufactures solar-protection fabrics from high-quality coated fiberglass yarns, primarily used for window screens. In January, the company received two certifications from GREENGUARD Environmental Institute, Marietta, Ga., that demonstrate that it makes those products to high environmental standards.
“Mermet coated fabrics meet or exceed the field-validated standards for products and materials with low chemical and particle emissions for indoor usage,” says Jules Duguary, general manager. The company’s products are GREENGUARD Indoor Air Quality Certified® to comply with indoor air quality requirements, and GREENGUARD Children & Schools Certified™ to meet or exceed stricter air emissions guidelines that take into account the sensitivity of children to indoor air pollutants.
