Green Seal is modifying its coating standard, GS-11, to reflect today’s environmental concerns. The biggest area of concern is greenhouse gases, global warming, energy conservation and Urban Heat Islands which is referenced under the Kyoto Treaty, EPA Clean Air Act, California AB 32, Title 24 and other air quality legislation. Green Seal can address these concerns by including a new energy-efficient requirement in to its new coating standards.

Green Seal can address these concerns by including a new energy-efficient requirement in to its new coating standards. According to a 2007, ABC/Washington Post survey, 93% of Americans said they are concerned about the environment, while 74% said they would specifically purchase energy-efficient products to help reduce global warming. More energy-efficient coatings will be purchased if Green Seal adopt a new heat-reflective standard.

This historic hotel appointed Conrad Schmitt Studios to initiate a restorative transformation including decorative treatments such as metal leaf applications and murals. The resurrection of the grand, historic French Lick Springs Resort is enhanced with a new casino. Now that the restoration is complete, the drawing power of French Lick Springs Resort is on the rise again.

In June of 2006 the South Coast Air Quality Management District (SCAQMD) implemented new volatile organic compound (VOC) requirements for industrial maintenance coatings. Two years prior to this date The California Department of Transportation started looking for a replacement latex resin that would meet these new requirements and still have the same properties as currently used industrial maintenance bridge coatings.
