OSB (Oriented Strand Board) is often referred to as sterling board or flakeboard. Oriented strand board is a type of sheet timber that was introduced in the 1970s as an alternative to plywood. The sheet timber material is ideal for load-bearing applications and is commonly used for flooring, roof decking and wall sheathing. OSB is manufactured by using adhesives and layers of wood strands which gives it the name 'strand board' as well as its unique appearance.
OSB3 is similar to standard OSB but it complies to BS EN 300 which means that it is ideal load-bearing in humid conditions whereas OSB is more suitable for solely dry projects.
