Court Orders October 31, 2008 Bar Date for Filing Zonolite Attic Insulation Claims in the W. R. Grace Bankruptcy

ZAI claims are property-related claims that could include, among others, the cost of abatement or removal, the diminution of property value, economic loss, or other property-related claims caused by ZAI manufactured by Grace.

ZAI is a loose-fill, non-roll vermiculite home attic insulation that may contain naturally occurring asbestos. It was sold from the 1920/1930s to 1984, and it was sold or manufactured by Grace under the brand name of "Zonolite Attic Insulation" and under other brand names, including: Attic Fill, House Fill, Home Insulation, Zonolite Insulating Fill, Econofil, Quiselle Insulating Fill, Sears Micro Fill, Ward's Mineral Fill, Wickes Attic Insulation, Attic Plus, Mica Pellets Attic Insulation, Unifil and Cashway Attic Insulation.

ZAI may have a glittery granular appearance. The granules are shaped like small nuggets and expanded like an accordion and may have a silvery, gold translucent or brownish cast. After years in the attic, the granules may darken to black or gray. ZAI may be found underneath subsequently installed insulation of other types such as rolled fiberglass insulation.

The Bar Date does not apply to Asbestos Property Damage Claims, Medical Monitoring Claims, Non-Asbestos Claims, Settled Pre-Petition Asbestos Personal Injury Claims, or Non-Settled Asbestos Personal Injury Claims. These bar dates have passed.
