Panasonic Eco Solutions North America is celebrating 20 years of industry innovation at Greenbuild 2013. To commemorate the milestone, Panasonic hosted a panel event to discuss the future of ventilation and emerging codes and standards for indoor environmental quality in residential construction.

“Our 20th-anniversary milestone recognizes our industry foresight and commitment to innovation,” said Jim Shelton, director of sales & marketing for Panasonic Eco Solutions. “Twenty years ago, we led the way with trailblazing ventilation technology from the first Energy Star-rated fan, to revolutionary energy-efficient DC motors, to our energy-efficient LED lighting. We intend to continue this progressive stride toward influencing green building trends for the next 20 years and beyond.”

Panasonic ventilation fans, which will be on display at Greenbuild, have evolved over the past 20 years to adapt to builder and remodeler needs and surpass building and energy code standards. The focus on indoor air quality stems from today’s building codes that drive the need for mechanical ventilation in modern airtight, energy-conscious construction.
