ants.
3. HEALTHIER
• Increasing desire of consumers (both civilian and military) for green building products
that provide healthier living environments.
4. ECONOMICAL
• The most economical material over the life cycle of the product as a result of its high
impact and low maintenance requirements.
5. EASY TO WORK WITH
• Smooth surface allows for a Level 5 finish with reduced labor.

What are people saying about Magnum Board®
I have chosen Magnum Board for our wall system
for a number of reasons:
#1 Magnum Board has a better finish than other
products tested to be incorporated in our wall
system.
#2 While testing a competitor’s MgO product, for
heat transfer I found it gave off a noxious gas so
strong, I had to open the overhead door to my test
lab to allow the fumes to escape. I then tested
Magnum Board and found it didn’t off gas like the
other product.
#3 While doing the high temp test the other
competitive product cracked into three pieces
which failed the test.
I will be looking forward to doing business with
Magnum Board in the future. Andy Miller – Steel Foam Buildings of Missouri
Mr. Andrew McLain with DPR, Forbes 500
Construction Company is designing a 13-story hospital
and has selected Magnum Board after conducting a
comparative product analysis across all drywall
providers. Mr. McLain explained that Magnum Board
was chosen because it offered the absolute highest
quality in terms of both product and customer service.
He believes that this one product could ”revolutionize”
the building industry and its use will eliminate the need
for light-gauge backing resulting in significant financial
savings.

WHAT ARE PEOPLE SAYING ABOUT MAGNUM BOARD®? - Continued
I was asked to look at a product called Magnum Board®. Upon seeing and reviewing Magnum
Board® and its properties, I was impressed. Being in construction as long as I have, I have seen
many construction materials that have changed over the years. Magnum Board® has the
potential to increase quality and minimize installation labor in its many applications.
Some of Magnum Board’s applications include: Fire Walls, Shaft Walls, Siding, Wet Walls,
Shingles and, due to its glass smooth surface, as a level 5 wall finish with almost no additional
labor.
Some of the Benefits of using Magnum Board® include:
• Decreased finishing labor on Level 5 Finishes
• Decreased amount of Magnum Board® to complete a project compared to Type X Drywall
• Less Labor in Shaft wall Assemblies
• Less time waiting on inspections
• Product can be made into many textures and sizes
I truly believe Magnum Board is a remarkable product, and when looked upon by architects and
contractors, will be the way of the future.

WHAT ARE PEOPLE SAYING ABOUT MAGNUM BOARD® - Continued
I have an awesome true story about Magnum Board®
The first part of this year, one of my business partners brought back ten-(10) sheets of Magnum Board left over
from a job in California. The product was set outside. The product has undergone unbelievable weather
conditions including rain, freezing, 120º F temperatures in the sun, monsoons, dust storms and all other forms
of punishment. Today, Tony Serna, a well known builder in Arizona started to move the board to an installation
point and also cut some to show potential customers. It was unbelievable the excellent shape this board was
in. The weather nor insects had any effect on Magnum Board®.
I can truly tell you that the South West region team will have no problem showing and selling your products to
the builders and consumers from the smallest to the largest.
We look forward to a World supported by Magnum Board®.

The Magnum Board® job is done and things went well even though the contractor had never used it before. He is now in
the process of installation Magnum Board® in other projects. The feed back is that while it was somewhat difficult to cut
they were able to expeditiously complete the job. Three rooms are garage and work rooms on ground level. One room is
a foyer.
The joints were trimmed with Azek for future removal if necessary as well as other trim and baseboard, except for the
foyer which is trimmed in wood. The whole job was painted and it looks great.
Thank you for your help

INDUSTRY PROBLEMS USING TRADITIONAL BUILDING MATERIALS
Wood based products: Swells, rots, are susceptible to insects such as termites
and carpenter ants; flammable; can feed mold and mildew; and, when chemically
treated may be toxic.
Portland cement based products: Respirable dust can be carcinogenic; difficult to
work with (heavy) and has excessive expansion and contraction challenges.
Gypsum based products: Susceptible to water and fire damage; known to feed
mold and mildew; is currently experiencing high rates of litigation due to chemical
compounds that contribute to respiratory diseases; and, can be corrosive to certain
metals.

COSTS TO YOU RESULTING FROM USE OF THESE
TRADITIONAL BUILDING MATERIALS!
Fire:
According to a 2010 National Fire Protection Agency report, $18.6 billion in property damage
was caused by fire.
Water:
According to AMI, water intrusion is the primary reason for mold and mildew growth. In
addition to this cost, as noted below, billions more are spent annually on water damage repair.
Insects:
Western Pest Services reports that over $2 billion are spent annually on pest control and
another $5 billon on pest damage and this covers
TERMITES ONLY.

USING TRADITIONAL BUILDING MATERIALS HAS A HUGE NEGATIVE
IMPACT ON OUR ENVIRONMENT AS WELL!
Gypsum:
Drying process utilizes over 1% of the power generated in the US today and contributes
greatly to global warming. Additionally you help subsidize this energy cost.
Portland Cement:
Manufacturing process emits a great deal of CO2 into the atmosphere and releases particulate
carcinogens into the air.
Wood Based Products:
Every old growth forest cut down takes hundreds of years to fully
regenerate the ECO system. Some of the adhesives used to
make OSB contribute to respiratory issues due to out-gassing.
