  • Meet Drywall’s New Contender: Foreverboard

    This new material is revolutionizing the commercial and residential building industry. It can be used in a variety of ways throughout a structure and provides a wealth of benefits including moisture resistance, strength, and fire resistance. The key component that makes all of this possible is Magnesium Oxide. Magnesium Oxide is a refractory material and is both chemically and physically stable at high temperatures. This gives Foreverboard an incredible thaw/freeze stability and makes it very durable. Foreverboard also doesn’t include any nutritious materials which increases its ability to withstand mold, mildew, and fungus. If you are preparing to undergo a home renovation talk to your team of design and construction professionals to see if Foreverboard is right for your project.
