Home Fire Vs Plywood Vs Drywall : Can This New Product Stop the Flames?
On this episode of The Build Show, we’re putting Firepoint's innovative intumescent-coated plywood to the test with a MythBusters-style backyard experiment. This fire-resistant sheathing, developed by ARCLIN, is designed to withstand flames far longer than standard materials. To see how it measures up, we’ll compare it against common building materials like fire-treated plywood and drywall before subjecting Fire Point to nearly an hour of intense heat. Watch as its protective coating expands to resist extreme temperatures, outperforming traditional options and exceeding code by 53%. If you’re serious about fire protection in construction, you won’t want to miss this hands-on demonstration! This episode is sponsored by ARCLIN.
