Although our panels are incredibly realistic, keep in mind that they are not a stone product, we manufacture them utilizing high-density polyurethane. With that in mind, you can use all of our polyurethane panels around a fireplace opening, insert, or stove, provided you follow the fireplace insert/stove manufacturer's specifications for required clearances.
When using our panels around an open hearth where there will be a "live flame" (e.g., wood, coal, etc.), we recommend that you use stone or any type of non-flammable border (minimum 6") before starting our panels. And then use Class-A fire rated panels for the area immediately surrounding the opening. Please note that anytime our panels are used in conjunction with a chance of a live flame or embers coming in contact with the said panel, we recommend using a Class-A fire rating. Keep in mind that a Class-A fire rating makes the panels more fire and heat retardant but does not make them fire-proof.
Other than this, you can use our standard panels with the same clearances observed as the fireplace/stove manufacturer recommends for any standard paneling material or sheetrock. You must adhere to each specific building's fire codes concerning clearances that are applicable in your area.
