March 23, 2005—International Barrier has released a video demonstrating the fire resistant effectiveness of the Blazeguard product, the company announced.
The video, which can be seen on the Web, demonstrates how two structures, one built with standard oriented-strand board (OSB) and the other with Blazeguard have two entirely different burn scenarios. After both buildings were set on fire, the building constructed with Blazeguard remained intact (no ignition), while the building constructed of untreated OSB was completely destroyed, says the company.
International Barrier’s award winning Blazeguard product is experiencing rapid sales growth in both the multi-family residential and commercial modular markets. A $2.7 million capital improvement project, which will include a new 15,000 sq. foot manufacturing building and a new manufacturing production equipment line, will enable Barrier to double current manufacturing capacity and meet increasing demand.
International Barrier Technology, Inc. develops, manufactures, and markets proprietary fire resistant building materials. To view the video, visit the International Barrier Web site.
