Contribution: Industrial Research Assistance Program – Contributions to Firms

Empire Kitchen and Bath Inc.

$44,000.00

Healthy Cabinetry Product Development and Manufacturing

FY 2018-19 · 2018-08-01

Summary
Mill work accounts for approximately 10% of the budget for any renovation or new build. It is the largest contributor to formaldehyde and harmful VOCs into the built environment. Empire Kitchen and Bath intends to add new products to its existing line of high quality custom cabinetry. The new cabinetry product will offer contractors, homeowners and commercial builders the option of a zero or lowest possible VOC and formaldehyde emitting product. The ability to define, design, create and manufacture this new line of healthy cabinetry to a verified off gassing standard will require additional resources and present some technical challenges.
