Warm Springs Composite Products patented FRX series of fire-rated composite or wood door frames allow architects and contractors to comply with the strictest of fire ratings without compromising the aesthetic appeal of natural wood finishes. The frame's unique design allows it to achieve required fire ratings with both neutral and positive pressure testing. WSCP frames meet U.S. standards for 20, 45, 60, and 90-minute fire ratings with certification provided by Intertek Testing Service, UBC 7-2 (1997)/UL 10(c) (1998). WSCP also holds certifications to meet British Standard 476, part 22, up to 120 minutes and BS EN 1634-1; 2014 up to 3 hours.

WSCP fire-rated frames are sold through a network of remanufacturing companies that have been certified by Intertek testing Systems and approved by Warm Springs Composites to use WSCP's rated constructions to properly machine and finish the frames. Fire-rated frames are available in an unlimited assortment of hardwood and softwood veneers, as well as paint grade and high pressure laminates to match the doors, wood casings, and trim throughout the interior space. The frames are available as single or double rabbet, for single or paired openings, as well as communicator frames. Moisture resistant substrate is available on request.

WSCP's frame design incorporates intumescent material concealed in the frame itself, thereby eliminating the need for intumescent in the doors. This results in significant cost savings without compromising the ability for the opening to achieve the necessary fire-rating. An available patented adjustable clip system allows for simple and quick installation, saving the contractor both time and money. The frames can be installed using traditional methods as well.

WSCP frames are certified under ITS approvals to achieve positive or neutral pressure 20, 45, 60, and 90-minute ratings in openings up to 96" x 96" with wall thickness of 4.5 inches or greater. Call WSCO for details on British Standards.

Molded composite sheet products and machined components are available in dimensions up to 2" thick, 48" wide and 96" long. Industrial composite panels are in one of two basic panel designs: Solid Laminated Panels or Bi-Directional Skinned Panels.

Our Solid Laminated Panels are produced using uni-directional or roving woven fibers throughout the entire panel. This style of construction produces a panel with uniform thickness, consistent appearance, unparalleled flatness and high durability in both structural and non-structural applications. The strength and stiffness of each surrounding layer of composite fiber closely follows the direction of fiber in adjacent layers. This adds structural integrity with a durable finish that is smooth, flat and adaptable to a wide variety of finish options, including sprayed coatings, as well as materials such as RTF, aluminum, decorative high pressure laminates and many others.

Our Bi-Directional Skinned Panels have a composite fiber skin laminated in an orientation where the layers run in a 0° and 90° direction, resulting in an extremely light-weight component that is longitudinally stiffer for a given thickness with good load-bearing capabilities. These panels can be used in non-structural applications as well and they are frequently used as composites skins to sandwich an internal core of honeycomb or foam. Bi-Directional Skinned Panels can be surfaced with any number of sheet products including plain or exotic real wood veneers, as well as durable skins such as RTF, aluminum, decorative high pressure laminates and many others.

WSCP's specialized wood products division makes a range of products including wood closure strips, specialty wood stiles and laminated wood posts

Wood closure strips, for use in installing corrugated roofing, are produced in a variety of profiles and delivered pre-packaged, labeled and bar-coded ready to stock on the shelves at home improvement stores and building materials retailers.

Specialty wood stiles are custom-designed to each customer's unique specifications and can be ordered in truck load quantities or as part of mixed loads. LTL shipping is also available for short runs.

Laminated wood posts make good use of scrap lumber that would otherwise be hogged and burned in boilers. Instead, WSCP end-, edge- and face-glues this scrap lumber together to form uniform posts in a variety of dimensions and lengths. Once the substrate is formed, the posts are finished by laminating a thin (usually 1/16" or thinner) piece of clear wood to each face. The result is a post with the appearance of solid clear lumber. Laminated wood posts are available in a wide range of finish species and virtually any dimension specified.
