Particleboard is made from ground wood chips bonded with adhesive and is commonly used in flush door applications. Fire-rated options include non-rated and 20-minute versions.

Extra heavy-duty (EHD) particleboard is traditionally higher density and can provide extra reinforcement for surface-mounted hardware. Fire-rated options for EHD particleboard cores include non-rated up to 45-minute options.

Structural Composite Lumber (SCL) offers a durable, extra heavy-duty rated core comprised of strands of wood bound with resin. Fire-rated options for SCL cores include non-rated and 20-minute options.
