​

US MgO provides an extensive selection of high-performance magnesium oxide (MgO) cement panels. These panels are suitable for various applications including interior and exterior walls, subflooring, and fire-rated assemblies. The panels offer superior fire resistance, structural strength, durability, and water resistance. Using advanced manufacturing techniques, US MgO ensures their panels meet rigorous quality standards and are ideal for residential, commercial, and industrial construction projects.

Why US MgO?

  • Superior Fire Resistance: Class A1 nonflammable with independent 1 and 2-hour fire ratings, providing extended evacuation time and safety.

​

  • Exceptional Strength: High-density composition ensures superior structural integrity and performance in various conditions.

​

  • Water Resistance: Outstanding durability against water damage and minimal strength loss during wetting and drying cycles.

​

  • Durability: Resistant to warping, swelling, delamination, and cracking, ensuring long-lasting performance.
     

  • Environmental Benefits: Non-toxic, low-emission, and promotes healthy indoor air quality.

 

​US MgO panels are easy to install, reduce material and labor costs, and are versatile enough to be used in multiple construction applications. This combination of benefits makes US MgO panels a sustainable and practical choice for modern construction needs. Using MgO panels for sub flooring saves time in the construction process by eliminating the need for drying time and moisture management, unlike traditional gypsum-based methods. This allows for continuous work without delays, as the panels can be installed immediately, providing instant fire safety and sound attenuation benefits.

Building Type Possibilities

About

Type I "Fire-Resistive" buildings (like high rises) and Type II "Noncombustible" buildings (such as shopping centers) require construction methods and materials that are noncombustible or have limited combustibility. These structures are generally built with steel frames or concrete. Thanks to US MgO's proprietary formula and rigorous fire testing protocols, Innovation MgO 1/2″ Wall Panels are among the few sheathing panel products, whether traditional or MgO, that are code-approved for use in these building types in the U.S.

As a noncombustible, Class A fire-rated material with independent 1-hour and 2-hour fire ratings, Innovation MgO 1/2″ Wall Panels can be utilized as exterior load-bearing sheathing panels on wood, steel, and masonry frame buildings. These panels have been subjected to extensive third-party fire resistance testing and have been approved by the International Code Council Evaluation Service (ICC-ES) for use in all building types I, II, III, IV, & V, in accordance with the 2021 International Building Code (IBC) and ASTM E136 standards.
