The Heat ls On

FlameBreak, a superior fire resistant panel used for new and replacement roof decking combining APA performance rated plywood and DensGlass proprietary gypsum panels, is new from Georgia-Pacific.

By combining the two panels into one, FlameBreak saves construction time since builders don't have to first apply a gypsum panel to the roofing framework and then a complete second layer of conventional plywood or OSB for structural sEength.
