Innovative Designs, Inc. (OTCQB: IVDN) announced today that BRC Laboratory, the independent testing facility responsible for validating the R-value of its Insultex House Wrap®, has received reaccreditation from Perry Johnson Laboratory Accreditation Inc. The accreditation, with an issue date of August 19, 2026, and expiration on November 30, 2028, confirms that BRC Laboratory meets the rigorous requirements of the international standard ISO/IEC 17025:2017. This development is crucial for Innovative Designs as it underpins the scientific credibility of its product claims and provides assurance to builders and consumers relying on the thermal performance of Insultex House Wrap.
ISO/IEC 17025:2017 is the global benchmark for testing and calibration laboratories, ensuring they demonstrate technical competence and produce reliable results.

The reaccreditation of BRC Laboratory is part of a broader effort to maintain rigorous quality standards in the building industry. ISO/IEC 17025:2017 requires laboratories to implement robust quality management systems, ensure personnel competency, and adopt risk-based approaches to maintain impartiality and operational integrity. By meeting these criteria, BRC Laboratory validates the performance of Insultex House Wrap, a product designed to provide superior insulation in residential and commercial construction.
For Innovative Designs, this development is expected to enhance its market position. With third-party validation of its R-value claims, the company can more effectively market Insultex House Wrap to builders and contractors who prioritize energy efficiency and compliance with building codes. The product's patented INSULTEX® technology is recognized for being thin, lightweight, and warm, making it an attractive option for modern construction projects.
