Extira

CMI Extira CraftMaster Manufacturing, Inc. (CMI) introduced Extira ? a next-generation, exterior grade, treated wood composite panel ? to complement its CraftMaster Door Designs and MiraTEC Treated Exterior Composite trim. Based on nearly five years of field study and laboratory testing, Extira composite panels deliver superior performance in a wide range of non-structural exterior applications compared to wood, MDF and other composite materials. Developed and manufactured by CMI with its TEC patented sealed press composite technology, Extira is actually 90 percent wood. The wood is physically and chemically bonded under heat and pressure with phenolic resins. Unlike wood, MDF and other composite materials, Extira is treated with zinc borate, a wood preservative, and resins that makes it moisture, rot and termite resistant.
