USG Sheetrock Brand EcoSmart Panels Firecode 30 have been formulated to achieve all of the strength and performance characteristics of traditional 5/8 in. USG Sheetrock Brand Firecode X Panels at a significantly lower environmental impact and reduced weight. They feature an innovative noncombustible gypsum core encased in 100% recycled face and back papers that form a high strength- to-weight ratio composite design. The natural finish face paper is folded around the long edges to reinforce and protect the core, and the ends are cut square and even. The long edges of the panels are tapered, allowing joints to be reinforced and concealed with USG Sheetrock Brand joint treatment systems. The panels are UL classified for fire resistance and can be used in any UL Design where Type FC30 panels are listed. On the face along the long edge of each panel, the UL Type Designation is printed with nonbleeding ink for easy identification after installation.
