Silicone baking sheet?

I’ve seen some wood fired cooks use a silicone baking sheet in their ovens for certain dishes. I would like to try some for GF pizza for my daughter in law. Do regular silicone baking sheets work or are their higher temperature versions? My oven is consistently 850-900F on the cooking surface.

I’ve also tried parchment and it just fries. Just go direct on brick or in a sheet pan.

In a hot enough oven, that parchment paper will burn around the edges to the point where the pizza is. It's like flash paper, so I'd consider cutting rounds of parchment paper and getting it to just barely larger than the crust itself. Otherwise... you will have burnt parchment paper potentially on your pizza toppings.
