Asthma & Allergy Awareness Month 2026: How ASL Delivered for Partners, Industry, and Community
May is one of the busiest months of the year for the Asthma & Allergy Friendly® Certification Program and ASL. From AIA-accredited webinars and a published article in Building Enclosure magazine to an in-person Trade Mission in Chicago and a community health event at Sinai Health System, here is a full look at our Asthma & Allergy Awareness Month 2026 activity.
How Our Program and Its Partners Are Making a Difference in Chicago Communities
For Certified partners, the Chicago Asthma Consortium's 2026 Community Health Worker Educational Forum was a demonstration of what the Asthma & Allergy Friendly® Certification Program makes possible beyond the laboratory: real community impact, delivered through trusted products and shared purpose.
Certification
Get your product independently certified by Allergy Standards (ASL) to provide clarity and confidence for your customers.
We created the Asthma & Allergy Friendly® Certification Program to scientifically test and identify consumer products that are more suitable for people with asthma and allergies. When consumers see the distinctive mark on a product, they know they are buying an Asthma & Allergy Friendly® product.
How We Help
ASL also provide a series of consulting advisory services, education and go-to-market assistance.
These services can be customised to suit your needs and can be started at various stages of your product or service innovation journey.
Join Our Lab Network
Our partner laboratories conduct testing on behalf of our certification and verification programs across a range of categories.
Our lab network has expertise in testing fabrics, chemicals, building products, finishes, vacuum cleaners, air cleaning devices, paint, flooring or immunoassay, and it’s continually growing. Find out how your lab can become an ASL partner.
Certification Standards
The Science Behind the Certification
The Asthma & Allergy Friendly® Certification Program is not just another unsubstantiated claim or stamp. Products bearing our certification mark have undergone stringent testing to a series of standards developed by our team of medical and healthcare experts. The number of Certification Standards continues to grow in order to encompass a wide range of products, supporting our commitment to the overall concept of allergen avoidance for people with asthma and allergies.
