OSB is an engineered wood product created from rectangular strands of wood which are dried, blended with waxes and resins, then placed in cross-oriented layers and pressed together under high heat and pressure to form a solid durable wood composite panel. OSB has many uses and is primarily used for sheeting floors, walls and roofs. OSB now occupies a prominent place in the modern home and building construction. OSB offers a lower cost alternative to other structural panel which results in strong, durable & dimensionally stable panels. The OSB production process utilizes the timber resource very efficiently.
