SafeGuard your Home for Decades
Where there is dampness, the right temperature and a food source - Mold will grow. When wood is the food source, the GreenShield™ program will provide protection against future mold growth. Treating the framing lumber, trusses, and plywood through a special process before they reach the building site, protects the outer skin of the house against early mold contamination. GreenShield™ provides the built in protection against mold related issues and costly repairs, at a fraction of the cost of future mold related claims. GreenShield™ makes good economic sense for both the builder and homeowner.Safe, Environmentally Friendly
Mold growth on wood can cause rot and structural defects; additionally, mold spores released into the air can cause poor air quality within the home.
