VANCOUVER, WA (February 17, 2012) - The Institute of Inspection, Cleaning and Restoration Certification (IICRC) announced today that the Board of Directors has voted to return the formal name of the organization to the IICRC, keeping cleantrust as the service mark of the organization. The full details surrounding the transition will be announced at the Certification Council on April 22, 2012.
“We’ve heard the feedback from registrants over the past few months and considered many options,” said IICRC Chairman Darrell Paulson. “Ultimately, the board has decided to use the IICRC as the main brand and use the cleantrust as a service mark. This allows us to honor the 40-year history of our organization, while also working to gain more awareness with end-users. We are still working through all of the details and we thank the inspection, cleaning and restoration community for their patience during this process.”
The IICRC will retain the use of the updated logo, which represents the strength and breadth of the organization. The shape reflects a globe, symbolizing the IICRC’s international status. And like the organization, the logo is made up of many different parts that are working together in a unified pattern, depicting an organization that is deep in knowledge.
“Together, this powerful brand combination of IICRC and the cleantrust, will enable us to constantly work towards our mission of identifying and promoting an international standard of care that establishes and maintains the health, safety and welfare of the built environment,” said Paulson.
Updated materials with the new IICRC logo and an updated design will gradually roll out in the coming months, including ID cards, brochures, introductory video and a new website.

Safety - Personal Protection Equipment - Part 1
Personal protection is a very important part of mold remediation for the workers and the building occupants.
1. Mold Remediation Technicians will use the appropriate containment/enclosures before mold remediation begins. The enclosure will usually be constructed from plastic and tape.
2. Mold Remediation Technicians will suit up in protective clothing, in addition to eye protection and respirators.
3. Mold Remediation Technicians will also establish HEPA filtering and dehumidifying machines.

Negative Air Machine - NAM - Part 1 HEPA Filteration
The pressure of a containment can be kept in a negative pressure environment when the exhaust of the negative air machine is ducted out of the enclosed areas.
In addition to a Negative Pressure Environment, negative air machines maybe allowed to re-circulate the air within the enclosed areas and effectively "scrub" the air (or filter out the small stuff). The picture below illustrates how debris, mold spores, and dust impact the filter of the negative air machine.
