Dear CertaSprayTM Customer:

Safety is a priority for CertainTeed and the Spray Polyurethane Foam
(SPF) industry.  As you may know, both OSHA and EPA have been inspecting
SPF chemicals and installation practice, and working closely with the
SPF industry to create an awareness of the safety risks associated with
improper SPF installation practices.

The result of this work was the creation, in late 2010, of the American
Chemistry Council’s website,   HYPERLINK
"http://www.spraypolyurethane.org"  www.spraypolyurethane.org .  In
addition to being a reference for health and safety matters, the website
offers an online training module and a corresponding test that all
professional SPF applicators should take.  The training and test are
free and takes less than two hours to complete.  After successful
completion of the test, the ACC issues a “recognition of completion”
card to applicators who successfully pass the test.  The training module
and test will soon be available in Spanish as well.

As part of our commitment to safety for contractors, applicators and
homeowners, starting May 1st, 2011, CertainTeed will launch a safety
policy to require that all CertaSpray TM applicators complete the
training, pass the ACC test and hold a valid ACC SPF Safety Card.  The
card is valid for two years from the date of issuance.  CertainTeed
reserves the right to verify compliance with this requirement at any
time.

CertaSprayTM distributors should forward this letter to all CertaSprayTM
contractors, in order to ensure they comply with CertainTeed’s safety
policy as well.

We thank you for your compliance with CertainTeed’s safety policy. 
Together we will grow the SPF market safely.

Sincerely,

Lionel Rossignol

Product Manager
