FlameBlock

IWP is pleased to bring LP® FlameBlock® to ten Western states!  As part of LP’s Structural Solutions offering, FlameBlock panels combine flame-spread technology and burn-through resistance to meet fire codes and help protect your home.  Proven to slow the spread of flames, FlameBlock is fire-rated OSB sheathing fortified with a thin layer of Pyrotite®; fiberglass embedded in magnesium oxide cement that is proprietary to LP. In the event of a fire, the water contained in the Pyrotite is released, reducing flames and slowing the threat.

FlameBlock is strengthened by the Pyrotite and the coating is weather-resistant, bringing added value, flexibility, and durability to any project.  FlameBlock eliminates the need for extra layers of Gypsum, providing a quick and lighter installation, and the structural benefits of the panel allow greater design freedom.

FlameBlock Sheathing can be used in a variety of single-family and multi-family projects.  Designed for interior and exterior wall assemblies and roof decks, the panels are manufactured with one-sided or two-sided Pyrotite applications, complying with 1-hour and 2-hour fire-rated code requirements.  LP FlameBlock offers the diversity to handle multiple wall assemblies and the high-performing protection each home deserves.
