Accsys, the world\u2019s leading supplier of premium, high performance and sustainable wood building materials, has announced that following the previous successful testing with Accoya wood, Accoya Color wood \u00be-inch tongue and groove (T&G) siding used in an exterior wall assembly has met Wildland-Urban Interface (WUI) requirements in the USA. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Wildland\u2013Urban Interface (WUI) refers to areas in the United States where homes, businesses, and other development meet or intermingle with undeveloped wildland vegetation such as forests, grasslands, or shrublands. These regions are especially vulnerable to wildfires, as human activity and flammable natural fuels exist in close proximity.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Accoya Color wood siding was independently tested by ICC NTA<\/a> within a specific wall assembly and met the wall criteria under ASTM E2707-22, which assesses fire penetration of exterior wall assemblies using the 10-minute direct flame exposure. The exterior wall assembly can be used for new buildings in WUI areas or any Fire Hazard Severity Zone within State Responsibility Areas. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe are delighted that our colored Accoya product now joins Accoya in achieving WUI certification. The compliance underscores Accoya\u2019s commitment to performance, sustainability, and environmental responsibility, especially in fire-prone areas,\u201d said Sergio Munhoz, sales director for Accoya in North America. \u201cThis milestone highlights our ongoing focus on fire performance and developing solutions our customers can trust .\u201d <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Separately, in California, following Accoya wood\u2019s successful compliance with WUI requirements, an Accoya assembly wall has been granted a listing in the Building Materials Listing (BML)<\/a> of the Office of State Fire Marshal (OSFM). Accsys will also pursue this listing for a similar wall from Accoya Color. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Accoya brings unprecedented reliability to wood with a 50-year above-ground and 25-year in-ground and freshwater warranty. Manufactured from fast-growing and renewable FSC certified sources (C012330), it is one of the few building products to be Cradle to Cradle Certified\u00ae Gold. It will not visibly shrink, swell, or warp, making it ideal for use in windows, doors, decking, and siding. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
