LP BurnGuard FRT OSB

LP BurnGuard FRT (Fire-Retardant-Treated) OSB is an OSB solution with the fire-retardant blended with the strands for protection through the thickness of the panel for consistent performance. LP BurnGuard meets extended (30-minute) ASTM E84 requirements and installs like regular OSB, so construction timelines aren’t affected. This innovation is first commercialized fire-retardant-treated OSB certified to meet the IBC and IRC definition of fire-retardant-treated (FRT) wood structural panels “by other means during manufacture,” including the code-required 1/8˝cut gap. LP BurnGuard FRT OSB is approved for the same uses as FRT plywood in exterior walls of Type III construction, nonbearing partitions and nonbearing exterior walls of Type I and II construction, subfloor sheathing, and other interior applications where FRT wood sheathing is permitted by code.
