Sustainable construction materials business T2Earth announces the introduction of environmentally friendly fire-retardant treated wood (FRTW) called OnWood Plywood. Builders and developers now have a healthier, more effective, and more cost-effective option for fire-prone areas thanks to OnWood’s sustainable design and Class A fire retardancy, which are made without the use of hazardous chemicals. When paired with OnWood Dimensional Lumber, T2Earth satisfies the requirements of environmentally friendly fire-resistant homes.
OnWood Plywood is independently approved by the International Code Council and was developed for fire-resilient, code-compliant materials. It surpasses performance standards for both fire safety and structural integrity.
T2Earth is launching THINKOnWood, a nationwide community-based initiative that aims to bring together professionals from the fields of architecture, real estate development, construction, community leadership, and code design/enforcement to promote environmentally friendly Fire Hardened Homes as the new building standard, in conjunction with the launch of OnWood Plywood. To assist in speeding up safer, more economical, and climate-resilient construction, T2Earth’s THINKOnWood platform will include policy guidance, education, forums for homeowners, and collaboration tools targeted at building professionals.
“OnWood represents the future of building materials: fire retardant, strong, safe, affordable, and sustainable,” commented Joel Kier, co-founder and CEO of T2Earth. He continued, “And with THINKOnWood, we’re helping lead a national shift in how we build to meet today’s risks and fire-prone community needs.”
