The present invention teaches that a tightly woven, and strong panel of fiberglass may be impregnated with sodium silicate in order to produce a strong and fire resistant panel. The impregnation may occur by spraying, by rolling or by other means, and the drying process of the sodium silicate occurs after it has been impregnated into the fiberglass panel. The present invention further teaches that a fire door core may be mass produced from fire resistant panels and the core rated for fire safety by a rating agency, thus allowing door manufacturers to produce doors using that core without individually certifying each model of door. The present invention further teaches a method of manufacture of the a sodium silicate building panel, comprising the steps of producing a tightly woven fiberglass panel, impregnating it with sodium silicate, and allowing it to dry.
