Home carries the daily life of the years; boards build every detail of your home.
As people's requirements for quality of life gradually increase and they are more and more interested in environmentally friendly products, an outstanding all-round player stands out in the family of board materials, and that is OSB board.
Coming from afar, the road to fame of OSB board
OSB, introduced in the 1970s, is a widely used base material for interior decoration in Europe and the United States. Its full name is Oriented Strandboard, but because it originated in Europe, it is often referred to as OSB in China.
It is a multi-layer structural board made of large wood shavings of specified shape and thickness, which are glued and laid in a directional manner, and then hot-pressed. Because its surface shavings are directional along the length or width of the board, its scientific name is "oriented strand board".
China's formal OSB research began in 1978 and was included in the national "Eighth Five-Year Plan" science and technology key projects. The drafting of the OSB industry standard began in 1998 and was officially promulgated and implemented in 2001.
Enduring popularity at home and abroad, and its superior performance is widely praised
OSB has been popular in Europe for more than 40 years. In the past five years, my country's OSB production has increased rapidly, and its superior performance has always been talked about by customers.
OSB boards have a highly regular internal structure, with surface flakes arranged longitudinally and core flakes arranged transversely. This crisscross arrangement restructures the wood's grain structure, eliminating the effects of internal stress on processing, making them exceptionally easy to work with and moisture-resistant. This directional structure also ensures that OSB boards have no joints, gaps, or cracks, resulting in excellent overall uniformity and exceptional internal bond strength. Both in the center and along the edges, they possess exceptional nail-holding properties unmatched by conventional boards.
Currently, OSB, as an environmentally friendly building and decorative material, is widely used in construction, decoration, furniture, packaging, and other fields in developed countries such as North America, Europe, and Japan. In my country, OSB is widely used in high-end decoration such as villas and large flats, becoming an upgraded product of medium-density fiberboard, blockboard, and plywood.
OSB board, leading the way in quality
Compared with plywood, medium-density fiberboard, blockboard and other types of boards, OSB has a smaller expansion coefficient, better stability, uniform material, and stronger screw holding force; because its shavings are arranged in a certain direction, its longitudinal bending strength is much greater than the transverse one, so it can be used as a structural material and as a load-bearing component.
