Fire retardant wood is chemically treated to resist ignition and slow the spread of fire. These chemicals are fully integrated into the wood and tested for its durability when it comes to facing moisture, heat, and corrosive. However, there are many other benefits this wood brings besides the fact that it is incombustible. They are essential for building of townhomes, theater props, exhibition stands, and internal partitions between rooms of your home. In the agriculture business, it is extremely useful for farming applications, sheds, storage barns, and stables. It is also perfect for the support structure and framing of buildings so the entire building will not burst into flames.
Fire retardant wood slows fires because of the chemicals that are fused into it. This will give you enough time to escape and wait for the fire department to come in the event of a fire. Its resistance to moisture and heat it is proven to be sturdier and more durable than any other type of wood. Overall, its decay time is immensely slower too.
