Even better, Owens Corning offers widgets that are customizable. Simply copy and paste the lines of code for the specific products that you would like to include (or exclude the ones you don’t) on your website. Owens Corning’s widget page gives clear instructions to help install these elements into your website, guiding you through the process of adding this valuable tool to your website.
