Health Administration (OSHA) introduced a voluntary worker protection program entitled PSP 2002, a
comprehensive, multi-faceted risk management program designed to control and reduce workplace exposures to
refractory ceramic fiber (RCF). Unifrax Corporation, as a member of RCFC, is participating in this highly
acclaimed product stewardship program. For more information regarding PSP 2002, please call the Unifrax
