MiraTEC is a Green Product

No old growth wood is used in the manufacture of MiraTEC trim. It is made from wood that is of no commercial timber value and is the byproduct of other operations. This leftover wood is also detrimental to the overall vitality of the forest.

– All wood comes from an area within a 200 mile radius of the Towanda, PA production facility. 

– CMI uses 100% northern hardwoods which includes maple, beech, oak and other species.

MiraTEC trim is treated with zinc borate, an EPA-registered biocide and a naturally occurring earth chemical that is environmentally safe and ensures protection against termites.

MiraTEC trim has no added urea formaldehyde. This is certified by Scientific Certification Systems under certificate number SCS-MC-01802. 

Through repeated testing by the Composite Panel Association (CPA), MiraTEC trim has demonstrated formaldehyde emissions equivalent to background levels found in the environment. 

MiraTEC trim is acknowledged by the California Air Resources Board’s (CARB) Airborne Toxic Control Measure (ATCM) 93120 to utilize exempt status ultra-low emitting formaldehyde (ULEF) resins.  

MiraTEC trim is primed with a low VOC primer containing a mildewcide.

MiraTEC trim contributes to industry programs such as LEED and the National Green Building Standard.
