Yes the missing part is that description is from Home Depots website not Eco's- that is how it is being marketed "by Home Depot" the largest lumber retailer in the United States.
very telling that "Home Depot" not Eco calls the product a "major breakthrough" its in response to some who claim on this board "the technology has been around for 50 years"
what is so telling? it is a marketing piece from ECOB. i don't think that is showing HD "telling" anything. am I missing something there?

It contains no formaldehyde or hazardous chemicals.
