The only gypsum board that clears the air. So take a deep breath and relax. Indoor air contains many pollutants and volatile organic compounds (VOC*s). The VOC*s are found in furniture, carpets, cleaning materials, and many other everyday items. With the growing awareness of the importance of indoor air quality, particularly in residences, schools, offices and hospitals, it’s time to clear the air.

AirRenew™ is the only gypsum board that actively improves air quality. • Permanently removes VOC*s by converting them into safe, inert compounds. • Absorbs VOC*s for up to 75 years, even after multiple renovations, based on tests and analysis. • Recyclable and works with most paint and wallpaper. • Provides enhanced moisture and mold resistance using M2Tech® technology.

Only AirRenew™ improves air quality, providing a healthier environment and peace of mind for generations.

AirRenew™ captures VOC*s and converts them into inert compounds that cannot be released back into the air.

* VOC’s (volatile organic compounds) – formaldehyde and other aldehydes.
