OSB in Industrial Applications

Since OSB is engineered to perform, it is adaptable to your specific industrial application. OSB is the logical choice for...

• strength
• stiffness
• thermal and acoustical properties
• fire resistance
• impact resistance
• workability

Oriented strand board performs well in most applications where plywood is used, and industrial specifiers have come to favor its performance, pricing and versatility. Plus, its specific performance requirements are quality assured by approved certification organizations.

Most importantly, OSB's consistency and strength make it a better value than other panels for industrial applications. Here's how:

• Quality assured design values for tension, compression, flexure, axial strength, shear and bearing are available for non-standard uses.
• Panels are consistent in manufacture.
• Panels are competitively priced, plus their versatility and uniformity virtually eliminate most waste.
• Availability in a wide range of thicknesses and sizes makes OSB adaptable to many special applications.
• Edge coating and exterior grade resin binders make OSB appropriate on sites where panels may encounter construction delays.

OSB -- its strength, workability, versatility, value and lack of formaldehyde emissions make it excellent for industrial uses. See for yourself.
