Fire Rated Decking
Decking
In wildfire-prone regions like California, selecting a Class A fire rated decking material is absolutely essential for the safety and protection of homes and structures. With the increasing frequency and intensity of wildfires ravaging the state, homeowners and builders must prioritize the use of decking products specifically engineered and tested to resist ignition and slow the spread of flames. Fire rated decking, typically composed of non-combustible or fire-retardant treated materials, provides a critical line of defense against encroaching wildfires.

Ignition Resistance
In California, and surrounding states that have adopted their standards, “ignition resistant” refers to building materials that resist catching fire or burning easily and that may slow the spread of flames. Ignition-resistant decking is less likely to catch fire compared to traditional and composite decking materials.
2
Cal Fire
Cal Fire explicitly identifies decks as a potential ignition source for wildfires, highlighting the vulnerability of decks due to their combustible materials and proximity to flammable vegetation, especially when not properly maintained or protected with fire-resistant features.

WUI Compliant
Wildland Urban Interface refers to zones where houses and areas prone to wildfires meet. Local building codes in WUI zones mandate fire-resistant materials for construction projects, including decks. WUI-Compliant materials resist flame spread and catching fire due to flying embers.
No other decking matches the beauty or performance of TimberTech Advanced PVC and features an Ignition Resistant designations, Class A Flame Spread Rating, and/or WUI Compliance.
