Building products manufacturer and leading gypsum board producer National Gypsum Company recently completed their shoot for O2 Media’s popular DIY television show “Designing Spaces.”  The segment, which features company Manager of Technical Marketing Mundise Mortimer, will air as part of the show’s “Think Green” series in May on Lifetime Television.  Mortimer explains how to make your home safer for your family and more environmentally friendly by using American-made National Gypsum products.

During the last decade’s housing boom, domestic sources of gypsum wallboard became scarce and builders began to purchase some of their materials from Chinese sources.  Unfortunately, a portion of this Chinese wallboard was later determined to be defective when it began to cause odors in the home and blackening of some types of electrical wiring.  This shocking drywall debacle heightened American homeowner’s awareness to building material safety issues but also brought much-deserved attention to quality domestic producers like National Gypsum.

“National Gypsum uses a sophisticated manufacturing process that includes numerous quality checks for both raw materials and finished goods,” Mortimer says.  “We also utilize sustainable practices whenever possible to help protect the environment and produce the best quality products.  The Designing Spaces ‘Think Green’ series is a great opportunity to help viewers discover the many benefits of quality domestic gypsum board.”

At several National Gypsum plants, the drywall manufacturing process starts with FGD gypsum, a product manufactured by utility companies while meeting federal standards for generating cleaner electricity.  FGD gypsum is delivered straight to the plant instead of going to a landfill and is remarkably even more pure than gypsum rock taken from the ground.  Facing paper is then formed out of recycled paper stock, resulting in an end product that contains almost 100% recycled content.

National Gypsum also offers mold-resistant wallboard, low-dust joint compounds, and the broadest line of GREENGAURD Certified products in the industry.  This widely recognized third-party certification program honors products that adhere to the highest standards of indoor air quality.  GREENGAURD products are tested for more than 2000 chemicals and subjected to random quarterly re-testing in order to maintain their certification.
