Poplar OSB3
About Oriented Strand Board (OSB)
Oriented strand boards (OSB) are also commonly known as sterling boards or flake boards. This engineered wood product is made up of individual poplar wood strands which are tightly adhered to each other with wax and resin in specific orientations.
It's a type of engineered wood similar to particle board.
This creates a strong, rigid, and versatile material suitable for a variety of kitchen and home improvement projects.
To create OSB, oriented strand board suppliers will layer a multitude of tightly compressed thin wood strands in cross oriented layers up to the required width and then compressing layers together at high heat levels in a thermal press.
Individual panels are then cut from the mats into finished sizes.
This results in high-quality particle boards that offer versatility, strength, and durability in a variety of home building projects such as wall and floor construction.
The microstructure of oriented strand board is closest to that of solid wood so stability in fatigue, even at high humidity, compares well with MDF and also chipboard.
Compared to plywood, generally, OSB finished product is heavier and swells more when wet, especially at panel edges. It retains water longer than plywood.
It has replaced plywood in certain environments.
