How will CertiPUR-US^® benefit foam companies?

CertiPUR-US gives manufacturers the value-added edge in today’s highly
competitive market by:
• Protecting your reputation by differentiating your products from
  substandard foams
• Reassuring customers about your foam
• Addressing topical consumer issues
• Demonstrating your commitment to environmental stewardship

What products can be certified?

Each CertiPUR-US registration covers only a specific class of polyetherbased
flexible polyurethane foam manufactured with the same raw
materials. The categories are:
• Conventional polyether foam
• Conventional FR polyether foam (sharing the same fire retardant package)
• Super-soft (low density/low index) conventional foam (≤15 lbs. IFD and ≤1.5 pcf)
• High Resilience foam
• Viscoelastic foam
• Other foams to be reviewed on a case-by-case basis by a CertiPUR-US administrator.

You can download and review the general CertiPUR-US Information Sheet that includes an overview and costs.
