How Safe is Your Siding? The Benefits of Rhino Shield’s Water and Fire Resistance

September 2, 2025

Homeowners and business owners in Indiana face a unique set of challenges when it comes to protecting their building exteriors. Between unpredictable weather, heavy rains, high humidity, and temperature swings, siding can take a real beating. But there’s another threat that’s often overlooked: fire. 


At Rhino Shield of Indiana, we know that true exterior protection means being prepared for both nature’s wettest days and the risk of fire. That’s why we offer a revolutionary siding solution that delivers both water and fire resistance—giving your property the protection it deserves.


Why Siding Safety Matters in Indiana


Whether you live in Indianapolis, Fort Wayne, Bloomington, or elsewhere in Indiana, keeping your home or business safe is at the top of your priority list. Typical siding materials—such as wood, vinyl, and even some composites—aren’t impervious to water infiltration or fire hazards. Once moisture gets past the surface, it can cause rot, mold, peeling paint, and reduced structural integrity. Fire risk remains a concern year-round, especially in drier seasons or locations near open fields or wooded areas.


That’s where Rhino Shield’s exterior coating technology comes into play, offering Indiana property owners unmatched peace of mind.


The Science Behind Rhino Shield’s Water and Fire Resistance


Rhino Shield of Indiana utilizes a multi-layered ceramic elastomeric coating that’s specifically engineered to seal out water and dramatically increase your siding’s fire resistance. This is more than just exterior paint—it’s a long-term solution for safeguarding your investment.


Key benefits of our water and fire-resistant siding solution include:


  • Hydrophobic Technology: Rhino Shield acts as a water barrier, repelling rain, sleet, and snow. It drastically reduces the risk of water seeping into wood, brick, stucco, or other surfaces.
  • Mold and Mildew Protection: By keeping the substrate dry, Rhino Shield inhibits the growth of mold and mildew, enhancing indoor air quality and preserving structural integrity.
  • Class “A” Fire Rating: Our special coating meets the highest safety standards for fire resistance, providing an effective barrier to fire spread on your property’s exterior.
  • Long-Lasting Durability: Rhino Shield’s unique formula is engineered to withstand Indiana’s climate, maintaining its protective properties for up to 25 years with a transferable warranty.
