In February 2024, firefighters from across Chester County, PA battled a blaze at an industrial building in Chester Springs. The fire drew a multi-alarm response, caused significant damage, and required a complete rebuild of the facility.  For Trevdan Building Supply, the fire was more than a setback. As one of the region’s leading suppliers of commercial and fire-rated building materials, including structural cement fire-rated subfloor products, Trevdan plays a key role in the building materials marketplace. Getting their operation back online was critical not only for their business, but also for the many contractors and suppliers who rely on them.

Rebuilding With Resilience


To meet modern building requirements while working within the original footprint, Trevdan selected NOCOM® Structural Cement Board. This choice enabled them to add a second floor and rebuild stronger than before and in less time than conventional construction methods.


  • Fire-Rated Protection – UL Classified for 1- and 2-hour assemblies (ASTM E119), non-combustible (ASTM E136 QAI Certified), and Class A surface burning (ASTM E84).

  • Structural & Durable – Meets loading requirements, dimensionally stable, and weather-resistant.

  • Faster Construction – Eliminates curing delays of poured systems, enabling immediate installation of walls and finishes even during winter months.

  • Improved Sound Protection – Industry leading airborne and impact sound ratings  (STC & IIC ratings available of 55+) 

  • Health & Safety – Free of silica, asbestos, formaldehyde, chloride and VOCs; resistant to mold and corrosion.


“Despite the constraints of maintaining our original building footprint, we were able to significantly enhance the functionality of the space by incorporating NOCOM structural cement board. This allowed us to add a second floor, optimizing the available area. The fire-resistant properties of NOCOM were instrumental in helping us meet the current UL assembly requirements, while its weather-resistant features enabled us to continue construction without delays.” – Mark Altschuler, Trevdan Building Supply

Mark shared his experience in a formal referral letter, underscoring how NOCOM helped Trevdan rebuild stronger.




Industry Partnership in Action

It’s a symbol of resilience in the construction supply chain. Their new facility not only came back online quickly, but now stands stronger and safer, ready to serve the industry for years to come.
