HOOVER TREATED WOOD PRODUCTS, INC.
Hoover Treated Wood Products, Inc, in business since 1955, supplies
a comprehensive portfolio of pressure-impregnated kiln-dried lumber and plywood
products for fire retardant and preservative applications. Hoover has five
company-owned treating facilities, conveniently located to
service a 100-member stocking distributor network which thoroughly covers the
USA and Canada. The rigorous quality control procedures employed by Hoover
are constantly reviewed and inspected by Underwriters Laboratories and Timber
Products Inspection’s follow-up service.
Pyro-Guard® and Exterior Fire-X® lumber and plywood are produced for
interior and weather-exposed applications, respectively, and have a flame-spread
rating of 25 or less, even after 30 minutes of test time. Both products are
clearly labeled and carry the UL® mark. Pyro-Guard® and Exterior Fire-X® lumber
and plywood are tested in accordance with procedures outlined in the International
Building Code and NFPA 703. Pyro-Guard® is accepted under ESR as
meeting the requirements of the International Building Code, National Building
Code, Standard Building Code, and the Uniform Building Code.
Pyro-Guard® and Exterior Fire-X® are recognized for applications where noncombustible materials are required in buildings. Examples are nonbearing partitions, nonbearing exterior walls, roof assemblies, platforms, canopies, exterior architectural trim and veneers, exterior balconies, exterior-bearing walls in joisted-masonry and heavy timber construction, and increasingly for decks in wildfire prom areas. Consult our web site, www.frtw.com, for additional information on recognized applications.
Hoover continues to be a leader in the preservative-treated wood market with Dura-Guard®, CCA, and COP-8 products. In addition to the time-tested durability of CCA and COP-8, Dura-Guard® can be used in all building construction applications, including above-ground, in-ground, and fresh water, and meets the EPA’s latest regulations.
PLYWALL® is a pressure-impregnated preservative-treated ASTM E-90 rated noise barrier, used for highways, commercial sites, residential areas, subdivisions, racetracks, and airports. PLYWALL® is engineered and constructed to your specifications, and quickly shipped to your location for easy installation. Designs from 20 to 60psf will support most applications, while gravel post-backfill insures year round construction options.
