Exterior Fire-X lumber and plywood offers the workability and versatility of wood as well as the fire-safety and insurance advantages of non-combustible materials.

Exterior Fire-X lumber is used for siding, exterior decks, balconies and stairways.

Balconies and exterior walls constructed of Exterior Fire-X may be considered non-combustible by some building codes. Exterior Fire-X siding is often accepted as an alternate for noncombustible siding, and exterior stairs constructed of Exterior Fire-X are generally accepted as non-combustible. Exterior Fire-X treated roof systems including roof supports, trusses, and decking may often be substituted for noncombustible construction in open warehouses, storage sheds, and other structures with no penalty in the insurance rates or the building code classification of the structure. Exterior Fire-X lumber and scaffold plank for temporary structures in construction projects may help reduce the cost of builders risk insurance.
