How many types of OSB boards are there? what are the OSB board levels?

Jan 09, 2024

OSB Board, full name Oriented Strand Board oriented strand board, here note is oriented strand board, this is very important. The surface planer is arranged vertically, and the core layer planer is arranged horizontally. This three-layer structure criss-cross arrangement reorganizes the wood texture structure, completely eliminates the influence of wood internal stress on processing, and makes it have extraordinary processability and moisture resistance.

How many types of OSB boards are there?

Due to the health and environmental protection advantages of OSB board, it has become one of the most promising wood-based board types in the future, which also won a broad space for the use of OSB board and development space. According to the EN300 standard implemented in Europe, the OSB board is divided into four levels, let's meet the members of the OSB board family!

01. OSB1

It is a non-load-bearing plate for general use, suitable for interior decoration materials and furniture under dry conditions;

02. OSB2

Is a bearing plate, suitable for dry conditions;

03. OSB3

Is a bearing plate, suitable for wet conditions;

04, OSB4

It is a load bearing plate, suitable for wet conditions.

Different grades, applications in different fields

Which level is suitable for the decoration industry?

OSB2 is mainly used for buildings and home use, is a joinery board, multi-layer board upgrade products.

Which level is suitable for the furniture industry?

OSB2 is suitable for making furniture because of its bearing capacity and dimensional stability of reconstituted wood structure.

Which grade is suitable for construction projects?

OSB3 is used for indoor and outdoor structural materials, decorative materials, concrete formwork, etc.

Which grade is suitable for flooring?

OSB3 solid wood composite floor substrate, instead of density board, joinery board, multilayer board, with moisture resistance, stable performance, no deformation characteristics.

Five advantages of OSB board

Environmental protection and safety

Strict selection of high quality pine, using MDI glue, environmental protection and health.

Strong structure

Core planer multilayer directional paving, eliminate the internal stress of the plate, no internal joints. Cracks, cracks, the overall uniformity, the upper and lower surfaces plus the middle plate, more improve the overall strength, strong support capacity.

Impact resistance

Static bending strength, elastic modulus performance is excellent, impact resistance.

Not easily deformed

The density deviation in the plate is small, the moisture absorption rate is low, and the deformation is not easy.

Good nail grip, easy to process

Board and board edge grip screw force is strong, furniture durable, convenient processing, to meet the sawing, sand, drilling, nail, file and other requirements.

As a new type of environmental protection building decoration material, OSB board is widely used in building structure, interior decoration and design, furniture manufacturing and other fields
