Armstrong World Industries is committed to the design and manufacture of innovative products with reduced environmental and social impacts.  We continue to focus efforts to decrease our operational footprint in the areas of energy, water and waste.  All doing so as a responsible partner in the communities where we operate. We strive to make products that improve spaces through healthier materials, enhancing lighting, reducing noise, and bringing beauty to places where we live, work, learn, heal and play.

Through Forest Stewardship Certification, and our work in conservation areas, we continue to seek ways to be good stewards of these resources and the habitat that lives within.

Featured Product

We continue to expand the plan for a sustainable future with the TECTUM® family of products. TECTUM is made of fibers from one of the most sustainably harvested trees of its kind, Aspen. The TECTUM product is made of the natural fiber and binder that is turned into a unique textured panel used in ceilings and wall products.  Not only does it bring nature inside, it provides sound absorption making it an ideal solution for spaces where durability and noise control are needed.

 

The International Living Future Institute has awarded TECTUM Ceiling and Wall Panels  with the Living Product Challenge Imperative Certification.
