Forestar product is mildew resistance, however, mold and mildew may adhere to dirt or dust on the surface of the board if it not stored or applied correctly. We recommend to clean it quickly with proper power. In a word, please do not exposed boards to high moisture or sweet environment and keep it dry and clean as best as you can.

No. Please do not use any glue to fasten or seal between Forestar boards. This application will damage the performance of plank, such as its drainage system and natural expansion.

No. Just normal tools are enough, special woodworking equipment is not required.

If Forestar product has been installed as mentioned in the Installation and Maintenance Guide, most of melt off will flow away rather than freeze. However, we recommend to use rock salt or calcium chloride for ice or snow removal. These may only leave white residue, but it can be cleaned easily by mild soap or rinsing with water.

Forestar product can be heated up and bent, but Forestar cannot guarantee the performance of such application, and assumes no responsibility for it. We recommend such kind of design and work should be reviewed and operated by engineer or licensed installer.

Forestar product is of unique and higher-cost formulation, and the best fire resistant rate we can carry is the B1. Unlike wood, it is not easily to be ignited due to its solid product with no air pockets inside, but once it catch fire, if the fire source is removed from, it will self-extinguish very quickly and will not drip molten material like plastic does.
